Thank you so much for sharing this-- very useful for us Droid users... any idea how to work the same magic for notification ringtones and alarms? I'm trying 'notifications' and 'alarms' as folders... they both seem to work! Cool. Nevermind.

I want to mount my driod to my PC, but the USB port does not understand what a droid is and wants software to connect to it. So much for plug and play!!!
Thanx

I created a folder on my droid and I do not see it from my PC. All I see is:
google_maps_navigation
LOST.DIR

You create a "Notification" ringtone the same way as a ringtone. The only difference is you create a folder called "notifications" all lower case.
