Re: MP3 ringtones
Certain carriers remove certain abilities in phone, but I will give you my example, which should be similar to Cingular.
I have a Motorola v330 with T-Mobile which allows me to use a data cable, or even bluetooth, as I already have bluetooth on my computer I didn't need any extra hardware.
I basically had to use a program to get mp3's, I used cdex to rip my cds previously so I used the same program to convert a few songs into wav format, and use the very basic built in sound recorder to edit the files, I would keep a small section of the file to use as a ringtone, have the new wav I made converted back to mp3, and upload it through bluetooth to my phone. You can also buy the data cable, and software, however I didn't have to buy a special cable or the Motorola software at all to upload through bluetooth.
Your only real limit is memory, the v330 has a limit of 5mb shared so it might hold one full mp3.
I suggest you look for phones which expandable/removable memory cards for more storage, but make sure you can still do what you want, along with most phones might only support cards up to a certain size, so it wouldn't help buying a 1gb card.
