TeenBuzz - high frequency ringtones for your iPhone


TeenBuzz, a website that offers ultrasonic high frequency ringtones, has added support for iPhone users.

The ringtones are of a particularly high frequency, which helps younger generations avoid detection of mobile phone usage. The theory here is that while younger people can hear the tones, older ones will not so, because of a naturally occurring hearing loss (presbycusis).

The new service works based on subscribing to a PodCast the website offers. Once this is accomplished a download to the ultrasonic ringtones will be given, and they will be automatically added to the ringtones directory.

You can also hear some samples on the website. Make sure your volume is not too high, though!
