The bad thing about MiniTones and the end result, the creation of all of those ring-tones is that they end up in main memory. My suggestion: get a ring-tone manager that works with MP3s, WAV, or whatever file format you like and go from there - the VAST majority of ring-tone managers allow you to use files stored on the SD card, creating indexes in main memory that require very little space as compared to the ring-tone files themselves.

Suggested applications: Call Block, RingCare (in beta), LightWav. I have licenses for both Call Block and RingCare and they both work well. I do have a reset issue with Call Block and TakePhone when TakePhone is enabled on my MRd Sprint Treo 700p - on other devices it does real well, giving you blocking abilities and ring-tone management with MP3 files for phone calls (not yet with WAV). RingCare gives only ring-tone management with phone calls and SMS using MP3 files. LightWav gives you the kitchen sink. All are very well supported.
