Ah, the beauty of beta. Haha

Lol, ain't that the truth! While I've been able to set the e-mail tones and some of the other tones since Beta 1 (they also added some more options in Beta 2), the tweet sound is new and the ability to set your ringtones as text tones is new. What I find weird is that Marimba is the only ringtone that one work (of the default ringtones), I can't see any of my custom made ringtones, and the new text sounds they added (which look like the ones from iOS 4 for the iPhone 4) I can click on, but no sound plays.

While I know it's a beta, just damned annoying... I've been wanting to use those sounds for over a year now. ><

PS: This is all on my 3GS, didn't have a money for a iPhone 4, and at this rate, I'll just get an iPhone 4S/5/wtfeverit'scalled.

Good. I just downloaded all the Windows Phone 7 notifications sounds. They actually aren't that bad (pretty cool actually, they're simple), and for once I'll actually know it was my phone that went off! :rolleyes:

Here are some good subtle SMS tones.
Here.

This site also has some good Star Trek sounds. I've add the communicator and intercom/hailing sounds my iPhone in major geek fashion. Great to finally be able to do this without jailbreaking the phone first.

I paid $32.67 for a XBOX 360 and my mom got a 17 inch Toshiba laptop for $94.83 being delivered to our house tomorrow by FedEX. I will never again pay expensive retail prices at stores. I even sold a 46 inch HDTV to my boss for $650 and it only cost me $52.78 to get. Here is the website we using to get all this stuff, BidsGet.com

mmmm spamalicious

Windows Phone 7 Alert Tones

Here is the link to where you can grab them.

I used the iRingtones app on my mac to import them to the ringtones section on my iPhone.

has some great ones! I used to use it with all of my dumb phones. Now I will take good beats from songs and use them as text tones.

Can you confirm that the text tones are the same .m4r format?
