3. NEW: TC Ringer - Customize Ring Tones on your Treo!

TC Ringer is the perfect companion to your Treo! With TC Ringer you can easily assign ring tones to both groups and individuals - so you will know who is calling just by the tone played. And TC Ringer works in conjunction with your existing Address Book, so it is very easy and convenient to configure.

How does it work?

Simple: With TC Ringer you assign a ring tone to an individual or group from your Treo's Address Book. When they call, TC Ringer's Caller ID recognition matches the person with your assigned ring tone, and starts playing the right tone. You know who's calling without even looking at your phone!

In addition to adding Audible Caller ID features to you Treo, TC Ringer is a full featured ring tone manager. To be able to use custom ring tones on your Treo, a ring tone manager application (TC Ringer) is required.

Features:

  • Find out who is calling without looking at your phone!
  • Assign ring tones to contact groups
  • Assign ring tones on an individual basis
  • Upload and organize your custom ring tones
  • Ability to also make ring tones random if you don't want to assign them

Requirements:

  • Handspring Treo (models with integrated phone)
  • Note: VisorPhone is *not* supported.

Purchasing: TC Ringer is $14.95, available direct from TreoCentral - currently in an attractive bundle with 5 Ring Tones from their exhaustive library (a $4.95 value) for only $14.95!

To take advantage of this special offer, purchase direct from TreoCentral via the following link: http://www.treocentral.com/content/Ringtones/tcringer.htm
