Abstract:
A system and method of generating at least two distinctive auditory alerts (246) upon receiving a transmission or telephone call (242) at a device (240) is described. Data indicative of a first plurality of sounds corresponding to a user (256) of a device configured to receive the transmission or telephone call is accessed, such as from a memory (254). The first plurality of sounds is played (260) at the device so as to identify a received transmission or telephone call being directed to the user. A telephone number, subscriber name or identifier associated with a transmitting or calling party of the transmission or telephone call is accessed (262). Data indicative of a second plurality of sounds designating the transmitting or calling party (276) based on the subscriber name, telephone number or identifier is retrieved, such as from a data structure (274), and the second plurality of sounds is played (260) at the device so as to identify the transmitting or calling party.
