This is one way to do it if you already have the music file.

I make my own from various Disney CD's. Garage Band makes it easy to turn a portion of a track into a ring-tone.

Hi all,

I have posted this question on its own thread, but haven't got many responses so I thought I would put it here as well (I'll probably burn in DIS hell for this)

Looking for advice re Iphone vs Ipod Touch. I have a Razr that works fine. I have AT&T service already. I have an 80BG Ipod but I really want to play with all these fab apps. I have an Itunes Library with over 140 GBs of video.

Dilemma: go with the larger capacity Ipod Touch 32GB or consolidate everything (phone, calendar, Ipod) into a smaller capacity Iphone?

Truthfully, I don't do much with my phone except make a few phone calls. I do not text at all. My Razr supports web browsing but I never activated it. However, I do travel some and would love to have some of these awesome apps at my fingertips (including games)

Any advice?

I used to have a Razr and it was fine for a phone - but not that good at anything else. One of the reasons you probably didn't use the Razr for browsing was because of the small screen and slower connection. The iPhone, however, just begs to be used on the internet. All the apps are great - you're bound to find some that you like.

I wound up giving away my iPod because I can fit just about all my music on my 16Gig version. I seldom put video on the iPhone though and obviously you'd be limited in how much of that you could take.

So, if you haven't guessed by now, my suggestion is to consolidate into just the iPhone.

Here is another tutorial on making your own ringtones... http://cybernetnews.com/2008/08/21/cybernotes-create-free-iphone-ringtones-using-itunes-in-windows/

If anyone is trying to decide between Ipod Touch and iPhone... go iPhone... tell them NikkiBell...

It sounds like you have all the tools you need to live life to the fullest!

My only advice is do you want to carry 2 items or just one?? If you don't care, save your money and keep them both. If they've become a bother then maybe you should think about having only one thing.

Hope this helps.

Finally sorted out setting up an app called PDAnet, which is basically like a wifi tethering app so i can use my iPhone's 3g as a modem when away from a wifi spot.

Really good, and surprisngly quick while I'm in an area with good 3g reception

Are you using Android?

Are you using Android?

I don't know what that is, but I dont think so

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

I just got an iphone today after hating the Nokia e71x for a whole week. I love this phone and am addicted to it already.

I read all 20 pages of this thread and now am prepared to go out in the world with my phone.

 

[luke]

Peggle is simply awesome, so simple, yet so addictive and so so well made! Recommend it to anyone!!

I bought it the other day. Downloaded a free trial from MSN games to play on my pc, just to see if it's something I'd actually play. I loved it! Immediately went to the App Store & got it. Now DH is completely hooked on it. Very fun game!

 

[*NikkiBell*]

Yes, yes, and YES! I will say it over and over again...Kevin WAS RIGHT! The iPhone is a Godsend! I absolutely adore it and couldn't imagine going back to any other phone!



(Let's just see how I feel after I get this month's bill though...)

Yay Nikki! Glad you love your new phone. Now just wait until your first trip with it when you can read the DIS in line! (posted from my iphone while in the car on my way home from WDW)

 

[donmil723]

I was going to rent a movie on iTunes for my DH to have on his iPhone when we go on our trip to WDW next week. Does anyone know how long you can view a movie you rent? And can you transfer it from iTunes on your desktop to more than one iPhone? Thanks!

Jinko netties, I have loved my IPHONE from the beginning. Those that mock us are the ignorant.

Does anyone know how long you can view a movie you rent?

The movie will stay in your Itunes Library for 30 days and once you begin watching it, you have 24 hours to finsh it. Once that 24 hours is up, the movie goes "poof"

And can you transfer it from iTunes on your desktop to more than one iPhone?
No idea, sorry.

Thanks!

Thanks! That's really not such a good deal. I was hoping DH could watch it on the plane trip down and I could watch it on the way back home but guess that won't happen.

Do most people buy or rent movies to watch on their iPhone? Or is the screen too small to bother with it?

 

[luke]

I don't but or rent movies, but the screen is big enough to watch things on, I often do it and feel it's plenty big enough!

I'm thinking of purchasing an IPhone, but someone told me Apple maybe coming out with a new IPhone this June. Has anyone else heard this? If so, I'm going to wait.
