Well, I'm not sure if every cell phone does this now, but, I have a older Motorola RAZR phone that's a couple of years old, and it lets you create a personalized greeting that shows when you turn your phone on after it has been turned off. Here's how to program it:
- Go to the "tools" menu, then scroll down to "personalize"
- click on "personalize", then another menu comes up with the following sub-menus: "Home Screen, Main Menu, Skin, Greeting, Wallpaper, Screen Saver".
- click on "Greeting", and then you will see a text screen where it allows you to type in whatever message you want your phone to say to you each time you power-up the phone. When you've typed what you want it to say, you hit "save" key and it saves it as your greeting.
You can type just about anything in there for a greeting.
I decided on "Greetings, Young Skywalker,..." because that's what my husband often says to me now, and it always makes me laugh, especially when he says it in the Darth Vader voice.
So, ....it makes me laugh whenever I boot up my cell phone too.
My computer makes me laugh too,....there are several .wav files of various Star Wars movie lines programmed into the Windows XP sounds menu setup, so,...for example, when Windows starts up, Ani's voice from Episode III goes, "This is where the FUN begins!"....and, whenever a download finishes, he goes, "We got 'em, Artoo!" and Artoo whistles out a cheer.
Then, whenever it's time to turn off the computer, as Windows is signing off, c-3PO's voice goes, "Sir, if you'll not be needing me, I'll close down for a while..."
That one ALWAYS gets me smiling. And, if I'm by myself in my office, I will often reply with something like, "No problem. Sweet dreams, Threepio."
;D
