The 8100 treats the mp3 audio files differently from the ringtones. It is
possible to have mp3 ringtones and mp3 songs to use with the mp3 player.
When a user copies a file to the phone they will want to choose if it is a
mp3 song or a ringtone, I was thinking a separate tab labelled "MP3s" which
would essentially be the same as the ringer tab but with a different audio
locations and properties, in the future this could evolve to include
playlists if the phones supports them.
