Using a cellphones ringtone to cure hay-fever

Submitted by Zero on April 7, 2010 – 1:20 pmNo Comment

I am surprised that this Japanese firm is still in business, its been making ringtones that attract members of the opposite sex, and even ones that translate dog barks into human language. People still have faith in this company its amazing;

The Japan Ringing Tone Laboratory has released its latest invention just in time for the cherry blossom season, when white and pink petals shower the country and pollen allergies and sinus problems cause misery for millions.

The Tokyo-based high-tech gadget maker promises its newest cellphone ringtone can bring relief when users hold the handsets under their noses.

According to the developer, Dr Matsumi Suzuki, who says on his website that he studies acoustics and analyses voiceprints, the ring tone unleashes waves that will shake out pollen stuck in the user’s nose.

Index Corporation, which markets the ring tone, warned that the effectiveness may vary among users.

My favorite part coming right up;

“There is no guarantee that this has real health benefits,” warned a company spokeswoman. She added that the number of downloads has been three times that of their other ringtones, without disclosing sales figures.
