I found a way to us an MP3 as a ringtone:

1. Use your PC and download software that will convert MP3s to GP2 files. (Xilisoft Video Converter 3).

2. Convert the MP3 to GP2 and save in a folder on your PC. (Keep the file under 512k. You may have to use some other software to edit the MP3 first to make the song much shorter in length).

2. Get a USB cable and plug it into your phone. (CyonGear DASAMM300R).

3. Navigate on the phone to 'Mass Storage' and hit 'Connect to PC'.

4. Once you are connected to the PC, open up My Computer and find your phone (removable disk).

5. Open up the DCIM folder then open the 100SSMED folder and put the 3G2 file in here. I think 3GP files will also work.

6. Now that the file is in your phone, find a contact you want to assign the Video Ringer to and you should now be able to hear your MP3 in a Video (video will be blank).

I hope this works for you all.

FYI, I watched a full episode of "The Office" on my phone last night and it was awesome! The video quality is not perfect, but good enough for me.
