Is there a program that converts Midis to wavs? cause all the polyphonic ringtones from the SE website sound pretty bad on the P800...

Have you tried using the midi enhancer file for the P800? I personally use mp3->Wav conversions but i did try this file and it really does improve the sound of midi files(instruments become a lot clearer).
The only down side is that there is a few seconds delay before the midi songs play after instllaing this .sis file....
This website tells you all....

* For those who have a SoundBlaster Live/Audigy soundcard, or any soundcard with decent MIDI output and the ability to use the MIDI as a recording source......
The best way to record MIDI to wave is to first download a decent size soundfont (I have an 8MB Sountfont) to get absolutely the BEST midi playback.
Use the Mixer Control to set the MIDI as a recording source (not "what you hear"), and set any other parameters you wish to have.
Play the MIDI file using winamp, or Windows Media Player.
Use the Creative Labs Wave Studio applciation to record the playback real time. Record as 22Khz MONO 16bit.
use the same application to crop the recorded wave, and also normalise the volume to make it as loud as possible without distortion.
save the wav file using IMA ADPCM to reduce the file size.
transfer to your phone.
The advantage of this method is that the MIDI generation performance of the Hardware MIDI system is far superior than most software MIDI to WAV translators, and you can take advantage of any post processing done by your sound card to enhance the sound. Secondly you have better control of the volume and format.
I have converted the dusk2dawn and NYC midi files on SE's site to wav this way, and the quality runs circles around even the T610's fantastic midi playback! Plus the sound can be heard two rooms away!
TIPS: use another wave recorder/editor to adjust equaliser setting and dynamic spread, etc. Use PSMPlay to change instruments and individual instrument volume on the original MIDI. For the real music fanatics, use an external MIDI synth to play the MIDI, and record from the LINE OUT (thho this is largely overkill)
