Download ringdroid from the marketplace and make ringtones from your favorite songs on your own.

In your SD Card, create a folder called 'media' if it isn't there (no caps). Inside that create one called 'audio' (no caps). After that, create three folders in 'audio' titled 'alarms' 'notifications' and 'ringtones.'

Put all your MP3's in there and they should show right up when you are selecting tones.

It's very picky about the capitalization of the folders, btw, but works fine!

Hope that helps.

Yeah you can't beat using ringdroid to create your own tones.

Will this only use MP3's as ringtones?

It also supports .ogg too. I don't know if ringdroid supports those files though.

I will have to give that a try. Just got my phone a few hours ago and there is much to learn yet.
