SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUDIBLY INDICATING INCOMING TELEPHONE CALLS

摘要

A landline-telephone personalization system includes a call indicator device, a computer, and a remote server system. The call indicator device is configured to download audio files from the remote server system and to play one or more of the files to indicate incoming PSTN calls over the landline- telephone connection. The call indicator device may play a first audio file for all incoming calls and a second audio file selected from audio files saved in device memory. The computer of the landline-telephone personalization system may include any conventional computer and may be configured to enable a user to view and select one or more audio files available for download to the call indicator device from the remote server system. The personalization system may save customized audio files at the remote server system. The originator of the files may receive credits when other users download the customized audio file.
