Just wanted to let you know I've actually updated the tutorial <a href="http://lethann.wordpress.com/2009/01/22/update-howto-make-your-own-custom-ringtones-for-iphone-20-3g/" rel="nofollow">HERE</a>. It's a bit better laid out I think. Hello, thanks for the refer back to my tutorial about the ringtones. Just wanted to let you know I’ve actually updated the tutorial HERE.

U cant send picture messeges wat is that about??/ a simple camera phone can do this but a smart phone like this has no... pICTURE SENDING OPTION i will be embrassed when a friend tells me to send a picture and i tell em that my iphone can't do that... But the good features are the app on the iphone the google. map and the WAY The fone operates :) the two bad things about the iphone is that they will not give u insurance for the 2 years so if ur phone is lost or is dammaged by watter u will have to pay full price on the iphone and buy it back leave u at risk

On both the pros and cons. I sometimes look down on my iPhone and think: This is so pretty! ON all my other phones it took me a week ore more to get used to how it functions and additional weeks to learn some more features (but not all). The iPhone took 5 mins to get used to and after a day I got the hang of everything else! OK, the new keyboard maybe a week to grasp fully. I can't use an older telephone now! Why are they so hard to use? I pretty much agree. On both the pros and cons.

That must’ve been the geekiest comment this year! :-)

But the truth is that "The result of installing Cydia is that it breaks your warranty, meaning you need to restore your iPhone to factory settings AND LIE TO APPLE ABOUT HAVING DONE SO before you leave it to service ." Of course, if you're one of the it's-OK-to-lie-to-corporations people, then you're OK.
