You can now get Polyphonic ringtones for your i90 and i95.

Nextel Subscribers Can Customize Communication With a Unique Sound
NEW YORK and PLANTATION, Fla., Jan 23, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Zingy (http://www.zingy.com ), the largest mobile entertainment provider in North America, today announced an agreement to power the polyphonic ringtones available on Nextel (NXTL) wireless phones from Motorola (MOT) .. Zingy will offer hundreds of new polyphonic song titles to Nextel subscribers who use the Motorola i95cl and i90c handsets, allowing wireless users to personalize the sound of their phones.

Zingy offers 16-chord polyphonic MIDI ringtones, which produce richer, fuller sounding compositions when compared with traditional monophonic ringtones. Ringtones are available in hundreds of song titles and include the latest in hip-hop, rock, pop, classical, and theme music.

"Our partnership with Zingy represents an important opportunity for growth in the ringtone market," said Peter Aloumanis, vice president & general manager of US Markets Division of Motorola iDEN. "We believe Zingy's expansive ringtone catalog will greatly compliment Motorola's existing handset capabilities, and enable customers to further customize their phones with ring tones that reflect their musical preferences."

"Polyphonic ringtones sound as close to the real thing as you can get with today's technology. Each song is created from several synthesized instruments that perform the melody, beat and ambiance of the original," said Zingy founder and CEO Fabrice Grinda. "People who purchase next generation phones expect cutting-edge content and features. This deal delivers the best of both."

"Polyphonic ring tones give our customers' phones a sophisticated and personalized sound," said Eileen Mercilliott, director of product management at Nextel. "Nextel users are successful and professional, but still value features that allow them to show a bit of personality in their communications."

Polyphonic ringtones may currently be downloaded at http://www.nextel.com/idenupdate and will soon be available from http://www.Zingy.com and their partner sites, such as MSN (http://msn.zingy.com ).
