I think it was called a Communicator. A Tricorder was the instrument to gather info and make analysis. If memory serves me right.

reason why I bring this up.. is the other day in the Mall a guy walked past me just as his cellphone rang.. and it was the exact sound the Communicator made when Kirk or Scotty or one of the boys would get a call...     

It was the funniest thing as I have heard many cell phones rings for what 15 years?. , and have heard a wide range of sounds being used to seperate one's cell phone from another.. ,and I thought it might be interesting to try and locate this .wav file and download it as a programmable ring..

The funniest I've ever heard, actually, was recently while out bowling: a duel set of ringtones from a guy and his wife who are huge jokesters.

Keeping in mind a phone is typically in your pocket or purse while in public which already muffles the sound, each had their phones set with these special ringtones when the spouse calls.

When she called him, his phone made sounds of her tapping/banging on the "phone wall" and in a somewhat muffled voice (sitting in plain view, no longer in a pocket) she was yelling things like, "Let me out of here!" and "At least loosen these chains! My ankles are killing me!"

On her phone was his voice in a similar style yelling some similar and some different phrases: "I want my phone call!" "I promise, honey, I won't do it again!" "If you don't open this phone right now I'm gonna....!"


It's fun to see people in their 50's still behaving like teenagers
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

He who MUST get the last word in on a pointless, endless argument doesn't win. It makes him the bigger jerk.

ingenious. they have to let that play in public and see what faces they get from strangers.
