Bacon Just One Of Sprint's New Downloadable Ring Scents

OVERLAND PARK, KS—Wireless-phone-service provider Sprint PCS has added Hickory-Smoked Bacon to its quickly growing list of downloadable Ring Scents, which includes Pine Forest, New Car, and Cinnamon Potpourri. “Smells are stronger memory triggers than sounds, and now you can assign a different smell for everyone on your phone list,” Sprint spokesperson Mindy Harris said. “We even have a line of Bling Scents like Cash, Crissy, and Blueberry. And we have Alabama Clay, Wet Dog, and Skoal Bandit for country-music fans.” For customers who carry their cell phones in their mouths, Sprint will introduce Ring-Savors in January 2006.
