You can find this information here and there in the topics but I feel it is important to remind every p800 user that you can have a full song as a ringtone (although you might prefer to only have a short excerpt) because you can compress WAV files. This is the procedure I used for my ringtone (which I will not post because of (C) )
1) took the track out of the CD using AudioCrusher -> wav
2) cut it out and converted to mono using Nero WaveEditor (any wav editor would do i guess)
3) opened the Windows Sound recorder (it's in Program -> Accessory somewhere) reloaded the wav and did a Save As changing the Options to IMA ADPCM, 22,5 Khz, 4bit, mono)
4) the 32 MB went down to 1 MB and most of the song is there, with good quality (for a ringtone at least, not comparable with mp3 quality) and very high volume

You can try JetAudio. Its a Ripper/Player/Converter/Radio replacement for the MediaPlayer.
Simply choose the MP3 then convert (with your settings you like) and voila...you got your Wav-File. Its fast too...oh, yeah, its an AudioCD Player, too !
