New high-pitched ringtone only audible to people under 20 (or 30?)
Wu-banga, Wed Jun 14 2006, 09:29PMSo I just saw this show on TV and they were talking about this high pitched noice that was used to stop teenagers from loitering at a store that is only audible to those under 20. Now, this high pitched noise, called mosquito, is being used as a ringtone so teachers/grownups can't hear your phone ring in class or elsewhere. See if you can hear it here:

I'm not talking about the backround noise, there is a distinct high-pitched sound

i can hear it. i actually downloaded it and sent it to my phone. came in handy today during math class. everyone but my 70 year old teacher could hear it, and once i told them what it was, they started laughing, and my teacher had no idea what it was about.

That's a clearer version with no background noise, shorter though.

I can hear the first one with the volume way up. Second one's clear though. My father also couldn't hear the first, while my sister heard it very clearly.
