I know some of you have used Fonix and have been really impressed by it. So, I can only see this as good news for an i-mate owner. :D

I tried Fonix. After I installed it the ability for my smt5600 to play mp3 ringtones vanished. I had to do a hard reset.


:roll:

I hope they fix that.

Ya! I am still waiting for the promised Windows Media Player 10 update for my i-mate. :evil:
