The cable to the computer. Not the phone to the cable.

How often do you transfer ringtones onto your phone? Enough to justify permanently wasting a USB port when Apple never gives enough of those anyway?

And you've still got the problem that a casual user probably wouldn't have a USB cable handy that has the right connector to hook up to a phone, so they'd have to go buy one. And spending $20 on a cable kind of negates the cost savings from making your own ringtones, no? So for a user who just wants to get the files from point A to point B (and who mentioned his Mac is Bluetooth capable, implying that that's how he'd like to do it), the easiest way to do it is probably just to use Bluetooth!

Glad to know I'm appreciated by someone around here.

I guess it depends what else they're using it for. And how many other ports they have.[/QUOTE]
