My hearing isn't what it used to be, and I particularly have trouble
with the high frequency tweeting that most phones use for a ringer.

Anyone have a suggestion for a phone with a ringer capable of waking the
dead?

Nokie 359x series seem to use the main speaker for the ringer and
polyphonics. My 3595 can certainly ring loud enough for me, even from
inside a jacket pocket in a noisy mall.

I got suggestions about the Nokia 3595, but surely there must be other
contenders for this. Anyone?
