Cell phones...
« 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.

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.

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...

Used to have that for my AOL email notification.

Thanks. I'm looking for one that sounds like an old fashioned bell type phone ring.

You can just PayPal me $2.50 for each one you download there if it'll make you feel better

I've got a Sony Ericsson P1i for work.
I'm pretty sure you can set the ring tone to any MP3 and you can download those from a PC via USB cable.

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...

I was thinking of getting an iphone too, but I want to know what other peoples opinions of it are first.  :)
