The ringtone debacle has gone on long enough. Hidden under the “Share”
menu in GarageBand 08 is a button to send custom tunes to iTunes as a ringtone. Say what? That’s right, you can now create your own ringtone and use it on the iPhone without having to first perform a jailbreak.

Having never before used GarageBand I wanted to see what all the fuss is about so I fired up the program, recorded some notes and sent it to iTunes. A short sync with my iPhone later and… a new ringtone. Then I created a funk melody using Magic GarageBand, recorded it, sent it to iTunes and my iPhone was funking out.

What have we learned today?
a- Apple does listen… eventually
b- There is a reason I never became a composer.
