Korean wireless provider SK Telecom recently gathered 30 of the most popular mobile phones (and four pagers) from the past three decades and wired them all together to create a bit of electronic music. The end result is a surprisingly catchy remake of the company’s current jingle.

The clip contains everything from the Motorola StarTAC and the Nokia 101 to an LG Optimus Z and the Motorola Milestone XT720. There’s really not much else to say about it so just sit back and enjoy the show!

Oddly I found watching and hearing them all turn on before and after the musical number most enjoyable... not sure why.
 
I want to be impressed, but I'm just left thinking that the tune just wasn't stellar. The music reminded me of a carnival ride, maybe a carousel, and perhaps that what it's supposed to have sounded like. But I wasn't blown away. (It didn't have that "wow-factor" impression that I had after watching other video's such as Honda's "Cog" commercial.)
