Check out www.howardforums.com for all things cell phone. I found many free ringers on that site and you can find all issues about your phone and what to do to fix them.

howardsforum was awesome! Took me 30 minutes to download all the tones. Did you just find that site or do you know how to make these?

I just happened to find that site when I was going to upgrade my phone and re-up my contract. It is full of good info. It helped me to decide on which phone to get.

Which phone did you get? I got the Nokia 3650. Awesome phone! I also agree about Howard Forums. That site is awesome. Another place to d/l things for your phone is on the yahoo goups messageboards. Its amazing what you can find on there.

I had the 3650 and liked the big screen but I didn't like how big the overall unit was. I ended up returning it and getting the 7250. So far so good but I am thinking about getting the T616 from Sony.

Yeah, the 3650 is larger than average compared to today's phones but it is still much smaller than the i1000 that it replaced, so i'm happy! :D Plus, this phone can do it all. It is a PDA, camera and cellphone all in one. I can surf the internet like a normal browser, check email, shoot videos/photos, use the speakerphone and customize the heck out of it. Plus, it has an upgradeable MMC card for memory.

The T616 was my 2nd choice but it didn't have as many features and i've heard tons of bad reviews on its RF which equates to tons of dropped/missed calls.

Have you been able to get the 3650 to record video more than 11 seconds? Are you using Nokia PC Suite?

Yes, there is an application which you can find on yahoo groups which will allow you to record video for as long as you want, as long as your memory card has the space. I have yet to use Nokia PC Suite. The software is called ETI Camcorder Pro.

My pet peeve is cheesy tinny-sounding classics as cell-phone tones. Sorry just had to add that. I would rather hear a normal soft ring. Especially if its interrupting a class!

I guess I shouldn't offer some ringtones I have downloaded then! I have about 350 now.

I have a sony ericson T616. unfortunately I was $80 over last month and I have to pay for it myself.

This phone rocks. I dropped it into the toilet the other week- kurplunk, I grabbed it like 2 seconds later. I just dried t out an now it works like a charm. I am so glad it works fine now, when I got it I paid like $250. Now it is like $49. Arghhh
