Tektro has a brake lever with a built in bell. Creative, useful for urban warriors, a bit heavy though.

Quite clever and always handy for use. My folder has a bell which I find invaluable on pedestrian shared paths. My Pashley Moulton as yet has no bell. I have to start coughing and whistling when riding that one. The only problem with bicycle bells is that they aren't loud enough to get past an ipod. These people really bug me - at times you almost have to ride up their back before they have a clue that they aren't the last person alive on the planet.

As if an iPod wasn't enough, early last summer I saw a person on the local mup wearing earbuds, reading a large hardbound book, and eating grapes from a small plastic bag. All they needed to occupy their remaining senses was a scented candle and a back massager.
Wish I'd had my new phone, I'd have shot a video.
