Or hear the pessimistic C-3PO say: "I do recommend you pick up this urgent transmission, or we're doomed." Cingular customers can choose from more than 20 specially-recorded Star Wars Voice Tones at just $1.99 each. - Star Wars: Trivia: Cingular customers can test their knowledge of the Star Wars universe and compete with other galactic fans via their wireless phone in Star Wars: Trivia.

Cingular customers can prove they are the ultimate fan. The cost to download the game is $5.99. - Star Wars: Puzzle Blaster: This addictive puzzle game immerses players in the Star Wars universe in this fun update to the classic, blockbuster game, Snood.
