Initially launched in 2008, the BlackBerry Storm model is part of Research In Motion's extensive line of smartphones. At the time of publication, the Storm 2 9550 PDA-style smartphone, released in 2009, is the most current version of the device. The phone features a variety of cellular and multimedia functions, such as multiple network accessibility, a digital camera and a media player.
VCast is Verizon Wireless' popular music download service partnered with the popular online music download service Rhapsody. It enables you to download music directly onto your cell phone, but if you have the appropriate software installed, you can download music directly onto your computer through VCast as well. If you want to use VCast music as ringtone for a BlackBerry Storm, or any cell phone for that matter, it's easiest to download the VCast music directly to your computer so that you can edit it into a ringtone in your audio-editing software.
The BlackBerry was one of the first smart phones, allowing users to browse the Internet and make phone calls, among a plethora of other features. One of those features available in every version of the BlackBerry, including the Storm, is the ability to set ringtones for individual contacts. With individual ringtones set, you won't even have to look at the screen to know who is calling.
Many BlackBerry Storm users wish to avoid the $2 ringtone fees that the cellular providers of the phone charge. The technology and features that come with the Storm make creating your own ringtones on this phone easier than making them on most others. With its own Media Management tool, making ringtones is as simple as finding songs and creating them with this program.
