Basic Help Please

Hello, I am new to this forum

.. I just purchased the Motorola Q and it is my first smart pc phone. The guy at the store told me I can watch tv (dont know how) and can listen to sirius radio (also dont know how).. I am going to browse the forum and see what all neat stuff can be accomplished with the new phone.. The basic questions I had are the following:
1) Is there a way to take MP3's off my computer and make them my ring tones, any software to do this ?
2) How do I watch TV and listen to satellite radio ?
3) I am having trouble entering my e-mail addy which includes a _ but I can not find out how to enter on my phone

4) I purchased a gig extra stick and I read somewhere about making that default for my e-mail and things of that sort but have had trouble getting this to work.
5) My ringer volume of the MP3 I put on it is real low and only plays the beginning of the song..
I greatly appreciate any assistance and thank you in advance.. Sorry if some of these are dumb questions, I just am clueless to this type of technology.

One more thing, my drive is currently full and I have a gig card.. I want to put my ringers and photos on the memory card to free up my operating system memory, is there a way to do this ? Thanks

Brian,
For the "_" and any other special characters, you need to press the ALT key (one next to the "Z") and then the shift (up arrow) key.

As far as the other questions on your list, check out http://www.qusers.com/. I don't use mine for TV, MP3s, etc. but I have seen a lot of posts there about what you are asking. The registry hack to use the SD for email is there as well.

Most of your questions aren't Q specific.

You'd be better off browsing our software section or the Introductions sections or the General Discussion area.

Probably the main reason for no responses is that these questions have been asked and answered so many times, it'd take a page just to re-write it all.
