Downloadable ring tones?

Does the Treo support downloadable ring tones?

Didn't see anything on the product page about this, seems like it should but couldn't find any reference to it.

A quick search at handspring.com reveals:

Wanna get the latest tunes or write your own music with an interactive tone editor? On Treo, you can! There are currently two exciting third-party applications that help you personalize your ringer: Primate Systems and iobox present: Monkey Ringer and popTones.
Creation Zone presents: Ringo.
Since these applications are third-party products, Handspring does not provide technical support for them. If you have questions about ring tone products, please refer to the third-party developer directly for support. These applications are not designed for use with VisorPhone which uses a different ring tone schema.

They have links on the page to these companies.

Is there any way to have the ringtone different for different people in your phonebook? My two-year-old cell phone does this and I find it very useful, I know who's calling without walking across the room to read the caller ID.

I just saw at PalmGear a new ringtone manager for the Treo, called iRing, the web site is http://www.proxyminds.com

Hi,

Electric Pocket's Ringo lets you convert any Palm OS alarm tone into a ringtone for the Treo. You can also compose new tones and share them with other Treo users by IR beaming.

Ringo is free when registered via its unique SMS-based registration scheme.

More info on Ringo and other Electric Pocket products designed for Treo are at http://electricpocket.com/treo

Cheers,
Iain

Can the Treo vibrate? Some are not allowed to have ringing phones in a court room . . . some courts even have $100 fines if it rings.

The Treo has a switch on the top that lets you easily change between ringer profiles - you can easily set one of these to be silent but vibrating.

The advantage of a physical switch is that its very easy to change and see which ringing profile is currently active.
