touchpad easter egg - Page 2

To get the "Angry Birds" sounds, the speakers need to face away from you with the home button on the left and camera on the right.

Why do I sometimes have a sound effect that sound like I a pulling back a giant slingshot with a high-pitched person squealing "Wee!" when I launch a card off the screen? Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. Anyone know what this is and how I can control it? As a toy designer I like it!

It happens when you hold the Touchpad upside down.

It's a nod to Angry Birds.

It only works in a certain orientation (hence the sometimes). Speakers facing up I believe...

Never heard that noise. But sometimes I hear a quick GONG sound rather than the normal woosh sound. Hard to explain sounds in text but its not the normal sound at all!

Odd; my sounds have stopped working. Oh well.

It would be great if this could make it into a Ringtone or Notification Sound. It is really funny! I tried looking in Zedge and didn't find anything close.
