Ringo

Our beloved Ringo has just added some new free ringtones for all of those using Ringo. Made exclusively for Ringo, you won’t find these ringtones anywhere but at www.ringomo.com. Ranging in a mix of Classical, Country, Rock, Salsa (mmmm, salsa and chips) and Ragtime, you’re phone will keep things interesting with every call.

If you don’t know about Ringo, then read our review and find out why we loved it. It works for BlackBerry, WIndows Mobile, and the beloved (but forgotten?) Palm OS. With its easy to user interface and ability to play MP3s for ringtones and messages tones, why wouldn’t you get Ringo now? :) Ringo is available at ringomo.com for US$19.95.



REVIEW: And Ringo Was His Name-Oh

Looking for a custom ringtone manager for your Windows Mobile or Smartphone? Whelp, we just got done reviewing one from Electric Pocket and it’s name is Ringo. If you are looking for a good way to customize the way your phone rings when either a specific contact calls or a bunch of contacts from a selected category, then check out the Ringo review.

Microsoft is a company known for its shortcomings. I could spend the entire day and few thousand lines of pixels here going over just some of them, but one particular one I’ll touch on is it’s lack of ringtone management on Windows Mobile. With it’s lackluster ability to associate custom rings to a call, I’ve become very frustrated with both my XV6700 and Motorola Q. Thankfully with the latest release of Window Mobile 5, Microsoft finally added ringtones to each contact; however, there is no easy and quick way to add a custom ring to a slew of friends or groups. With a few ringtone managers available to aid in this failing, none really have made the management in the ringtone manager easy with a small footprint. Is Electric Pocket’s Ringo that manager?

Ringo has been a popular fixture on PalmOS Treos including the new 700p. The 700w has also been equipped with this easy to use ringtone manager that comes with 50 MP3 ringtones for immediate use. You will be able to use any MP3 or WMA file for a specific ring for a certain somebody or somebodies as well as being able to assign the two file formats to SMS delivery alerts for that important person.

“Smartphones are truly lifestyle devices and Ringo enhances the experience by allowing users to personalize it to match their moods,” said Iain Barclay, Electric Pocket’s Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer. “With access to over 50 free MP3 ringtones built right into the application, we believe Ringo will be enormously popular among Smartphone users.”

Your smartphone is probably in the included bunch of supported phones, Cingular 2125, Motorola Q, T-Mobile Dash and the SPV C600 from Orange, so why don’t you give it a looks-see. For $19.99, it may be a winner.
