Donald Trump's "The Apprentice" is using 8410D sets on the Definity in Trump Tower. Happened to catch it when someone was making a call from the office.

I noticed they never use the right ring tones for any given system in the movies!

Yeah, that is so true. Like on law and order they use the nortel norstar phones, but the ringtones are from the merlin BIS phones. I always find that funny

The prop folks for JAG are not consistent - sometimes I will see Merlin/BIS, sometimes Partner Euro and a few times I have seen Definity sets.

I noticed through the years that ER has changed more than once. And I thought County General in Chicago was broke? At least that's how they portray it on the show. How many hospitals that are going broke change phones more than once in a few years?

Wasn't there a thread about this a while back, and someone said they actually were in the business of leasing phones as props?
