Verizon cap in the a**

It's not necessarily news that Verizon cripples the Motorola RAZR from being able to transfer ringtones and media files. The guys over at Wired wrote an interesting article about this topic yesterday. Give it a read.

I used to have a RAZR from Verizon and tried BitPim and a Motorola Phone Tools hack, but both solutions took too much effort. And then there is Xingtone, which is a nifty application that let's you easily create ringtones from music you own. However, Verizon put a severe cap on the file size so that you could only transfer a Xingtone ringtone that was tiny (like less than 5 seconds long).

I understand Verizon is trying to make money off of their own ringtone sales, but come on... if the functionality already exists and you intentionally limit it, that's just plain evil.
