If you’ve tried loading the Installer.app software onto your iPhone then you’ve probably had a look through the community applications section to see what the home-brew crowd are getting up to. What you might have missed, however, is an app called Song Sender – imaging something like the Zune’s media sharing feature only without the tedious 3 play/3 day limit, and with no need to be physically near whoever you’re sending music to.
Basically, Song Sender lets you choose a track from your library and then either play it, set it as the current ringtone, or forward it to someone else via email. With that third option you can also add a message explaining why you’ve sent it.
Song Sender can be found in the Community Resources package, which you can install on the iPhone from within Installer.app itself. But remember, sending copyrighted music to others is THEFT and VERY, VERY NAUGHTY. So don’t do it, okay?

So Joey, you can afford a $600 phone but not a $1099 MacBook?
Um….
Yah, actually, i would NEVER go buy a mac so i can just so i can hack my iphone. I could go buy a macbook if i wanted to, but i dont know why i would, i have no need for a new computer right now.
