334400
Human brains are designed to find patterns. They please us. We get a little kick of endorphins when we see a face in a combination of tree branches, or a sailing ship in a passing cloud.
Or, like me today, finding that the telephone number for one of your suppliers (when keyed into a touch-tone phone) sounds exactly like the first bars of The Underground Bit from Super Mario Bros.
Try it, pick up a touch-tone and listen to the reciever as you dial 334400. For bonus points, say to the person who answers "did you know your number is the Super Mario number?"

But one of my best friends had "Mary Had A Little Lamb." Then her number changed and it was "Yankee Doodle." And I don't know if the latter is a purely American thing, but I thought it was pretty funny.
what's even cooler is that my cousin has a samsung mobile, I think it's the e800, and you can change the keypad tones to a major scale. I think it's f major. it sounds like a music box. I wish my humble little nokia had a similar setting on it.
