Re: Any sites that list ringer formats?

The max ringer name on a 6100 appears to be 20 characters. I posted a 
write up on this a while back. In short:

Original song title: Queen (with David Bowie) - Under Pressure.mp3.
Title on phone: Queen with David Bowie Under, but it won't play
If I try, to erase it, it remains in the list.
If I try to rename it, I get "Queen with David Bow" in the name editor.
If I try to change the name, the name change is ignored.
Manually rename the mp3 on my computer to queen.mp3 and send it. It 
works fine.

The only way I could remove the "too long" name was to have bitpim 
download all ringers, delete the one with the too long name. Then send 
all the ringers back using the replace option.

- Davin
