Ring My Bell

A Reuters write via ZDNet talks about how wireless operators allegedly believe the next growth area for ring tones lies with the Hurban market. The ZDNet sub-head refers to young Hispanics as "Multimedia Mavens" and quotes a Forrester Research study to bolster the argument. Mention is also made of something called the Billboard Hot Ring Tones chart. I didn't know anyone was keeping track of this sort of thing.

I use my cellphone as an alarm clock and not much else.

Full Disclosure - I often freelance for a trade publication owned by VNU, which also owns Billboard magazine.
