For those who are complaining about NOT being able to send MMS's or going online, you should talk to your service provider...you might have to upgrade your sim card from 16bit to 32bit/64bit or maybe one of the settings are wrong. Just call customer care! ;-)

Drag the song into the PC Studio into the ringtone section then go there on your phone and sent it as your ringtone.

Pretty simple

To convert AVI to MPEG4 etc. you can download a little program at the follow address: http://www.download.com/Front-...?tag=lst-0-2
There is also one for MAC on the same site(under the same name).
And yes this phone does have "TV", but only "tv" programs available from your 3g service provider(like 30 sec. "24" episodes) at a monthly rate. (You can't tune in and watch your favourite soapy like a normal tv.)
