I was wondering if one exists.  I found a rather poor version of "Broadway" somewhere online, but it didn't do it justice to say the least.

For anyone interested, this site has a bunch of college song ringtones (but they charge for them - might be free ones elsewhere):

I checked this out when I first started with VoiceStream (now T-Mobile), and not only did they not have "Give My Regards to Broadway" under showtunes, they had a list of college fight songs available which did not include "Davy" (but did include "A Utah Man").

Unfortunately, ringtone arrangements are usually pretty crappy.  I've seen a lot of ads for "Handy-Klingeltone" of the Nena/Kim Wilde duet "Anyplace, Anywhere, Anytime", which has a synthesized melody which would be perfect and quite distinctive, but when I listened to the sample, it was just the vocal part, which sounds a lot cheesier.

I started making one after a game at the Regent Lounge and never finished it, but I should probably do that. And my ringtones don't suck :-)

Sorry. My first question wasn't clear. I should have asked if you DL'ed the ringtone from Virgin or if there was another way to add ringtones to a Virgin phone. When I got my virgin phone, I didn't look through the selection of ringtones as I thought paying $2 for a ringtone was silly. But I never imagined that Davy would be available...

Thanks for the info.

I never even thought of this.  Who knows of a good way to get one if your provider is Verizon...  


Oh yeah, I have the motorola T720

Do all of the responders who have changed their ring tones own the interface needed to load it into the phone?  I am not ready to buy one but then again I just looked on the Verizon site and can't find one for my phone at this time.

Is there a way to dial a site that will send the ring tone to the phone?

Of course, if we all have "Davy," then getting a call at a Cornell game will turn into quite an event... ;-)

Right now my phone can't even download ringtones, but I'm planning to upgrade soon.  I'm on Verizon, and will probably get one of the newer (color screen) Samsung models, which can download them.  If they have support for programming ring tones, I'll definitely try making one for "Davy".

Here is some info on Verizon's 'Get It Now' technology:

Does anyone know if you can use/write open-source programs for Verizon? (or any other service providers)  Or does it all have to go thru Verizon's content provider application process?  I'm not too familiar with all of this, being my 2 year old phone is now a clunky dinosaur :-D

If you can hear your cell phone ring at a hockey game, you're doing something wrong.  :-P

I would rather have everyone's cell phones go off all at the same time, with any kind of ring, and then head straight into "Your mom called..."

If that could be organized, it would be fantastic!
