Title: Cell phones...
Post by: Jer on July 10, 2008, 11:50:31 AM: So I just got my new phone a while back, and I was looking to get the 'Hockey Night In Canada' ringer. Unfortunately it's impossible to get through providers here in Canada now so I started searching all over the net and I stumbled across this site.

http://www.myxertones.com/

I believe it supports most American providers as well, and it's awesome. MOST of the ringtones and graphics available on the site are free to download to your phone and only cost your normal data usage and you can really find pretty much anything on there. I just thought I'd share this with the rest of you in case any of you were getting tired of paying for your ringers.

Post by: Jer on July 10, 2008, 12:11:13 PM: I got the LG Chocolate for free. I know lots of people have said bad things about it, but I love it. I think what most people couldn't get used to was the touch sensitive face, but it's nothing if you just take your time and are careful.

Post by: Jer on July 10, 2008, 04:49:03 PM: Yeah, I love it! I got my text message notice as Dr. Evil "You've got Freakin' mail!"
I'm going to end up downloading a whole ton of them to send to people as voice messages.

I went and put this as my voicemail message...

Dr. Evil "You've got Freakin' mail!"

Used to have that for my AOL email notification.

Post by: Sgt. Pate on July 10, 2008, 09:38:00 PM: Thanks bro... but I don't think I'll know how to deal with NOT paying $2.50 each! :*))

I get bored quick so need LOTSA tones! ;)

Post by: The Zook on July 11, 2008, 01:15:41 AM: You can just PayPal me $2.50 for each one you download there if it'll make you feel better (https://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fslybaldguys.com%2Fsmf%2FSmileys%2Fanimated%2F2funny.gif&hash=4d96741f640f66dec2498f59d46a19a2915d545d)

I'm pretty sure you can set the ring tone to any MP3 and you can download those from a PC via USB cable.

Post by: BlackJamesRackham on July 11, 2008, 01:09:54 PM: Hey Jer, I actually have the LG Chocolate too. It's not a bad phone. But I will be switching to the iPhone in a few months I think...

The only objection I have isn't about the iPhone, it's that my carrier wants $30.00 more a month for the internet access! :o

I have the BlackBerry Curve and it's been super. O0

Post by: hawkerhino on July 11, 2008, 01:47:25 PM: Iphone review:
was looking for a new phone for me and wife, she liked the iphone and i did not want it as i break all phones in 6 months or less. :x! the ATT sales rep took the iphone and thru it across the room and then hit the counter with it 3 times.

i now own 2 iphones and love them. watch movies while traveling, internet and mail while out,

only dislikes, no zoom camara and no video camara. other than that i think it is the best phone i have had.... O0

if any other questions feel free to ask

HR

edit: the 2 phone package for us is only 120 month with unlimited data and 200 text 1400 daytime unlimited night n weekend and rollover min
