Add better ringtones to iPhones lacking alerts

The iPhone is lacking in the ringtone alert department. Take the half-hour set-up and spare yourself from drab incoming call alerts.

1.) Get yourself some tones you'd rather hear when a call comes in. Try this suggestion from tuaw which describes how to use iTunes clips for use as a ringtone.

2.) Once you've got a few tones, head over to Hack the iPhone and download iPhoneInterface. Here is the direct link to the download for Windows (XP and Vista). This tool is what you will use to upload your tones to the iPhone.

3.) Now that you have your tones and have uploaded them to your iPhone using iPhoneInterface, you simply navigate to Settings -> Sound > Ringtone on your iPhone and choose the new ringtone you just uploaded.
