3G iPhone

Them sat nav apps are quite dear. Would you not just be better buying a proper sat nav. Probably better and more reliable than using it on the iPhone.

To be honest, I think I'd prefer to have just the one device that does all, saves the hassle of multiple chargers and extra gadgets. Two of the most reputable companys are coming out with solutions for the I Phone, so I would expect the app to be pretty decent... My only worry is that the I phone GPS receiver is not as refined as a receiver that you would get in a standard Sat Nav hardware..hence Tomtom offering the App with an additonal  holder (with inbuilt signal booster)

Yeah I get your point on one gadget to do most things but I don't think the iPhone sat nav would be able to perform as well as a stand alone sat nav system. I've no doubt the software will be the same quality but the main thing being the signal but the booster could sort that problem. Also the iPhone has a number of other things to do while being used as a sat nav so performance could be an issue, as well as battery life.

I just think it would be handier to have a stand alone sat nav, and leave it connected in the car and use the iPhone as a phone.

iPhone ringtones have to be in .mp4r format. You can't use the normal .mp3 files.

Try http://www.audiko.net You can download ringtones from there, as well as upload your own mp3 files and choose what part you want as your ringtone.

Google "how to make I phone ringtones". You will find instructions on how to make ringtones from any part of any piece of music.

cant do this now cos i'm in work archie but cheers. is this a free service? and once i've set up a ringtone through this site can i just transfer it to itunes and then onto my phone?

[Archie Mitchell]

Yeah, a free service. You upload your song, choose the part you want, submit that to the website, download it in .mp4r format, import this file into ringtones section of your iTunes and then drag across to iPhone.
