當接受短信的時候，Nokia的手機都會傳出那種非常特別的鈴聲。其實這個鈴聲的來由就是莫斯電碼中SMS的代號。同樣的，短信中的“Ascending”聲音，其實來源是Nokia口號Connecting People的莫斯代碼；而“Standard”短信鈴聲其實是字母M（message）的莫斯代碼。
官方網站的說法：
Nokia ringtone has classical roots
The Nokia Tune is probably one of the most frequently played pieces of music in the world.
The company introduced it as a ringtone in 1994 with the Nokia 2100 series, which went on to sell 20 million phones worldwide. Nokia’s target had been 400,000.
The tune comes from a classical guitar work called Gran Vals, composed by Francisco Tarrega in the 19th century.
Ringtones have come a long way since 1994, and new phones offer dozens of choices in a variety of formats. With the right phone, you can even create your own.
