Monday, July 30, 2007

Did you know that Nokia's SMS alert tones ("Standard", "Special" and "Ascending") are actually morse codes?

The Standard tone actually stands for M (Message)
Morse code: [- -]

The Special tone actually stands for SMS
Morse code: [. . .] [- -] [. . .]

The Ascending tone stands for Connecting People
Morse code: [- . - .] [- - -] [- .] [- .] [.] [- . - .] [-] [. .] [- .] [- - .] [. - - .] [.] [- - -] [. - - .] [. - . .] [.]
