I've added a link in the FAQ to some various ringtones,
ringtones

The link is posted in Third Party Applications under Freeware.

Often users are looking for something louder, etc., in noisy environs or low volume device (like the 8830 has been noted). In the folder Classic Ringtones are some pretty bad ones. Feel free to share.

Today I have updated the FAQ regarding Maximizing your battery life.
It was originally authored by Rejhon, and was really out of date and some erroneous information as well, in regard to the current BlackBerrys.

If you see anything that needs adding or whatever, please let me know.

Maximum Battery Life - BlackBerryFAQ
