A number of iPhone-related applications have been featured at Macworld Expo, and here are a few that have caught our interest:
iToner 2 from Ambrosia Software enables free, quick ringtone creation and transfer without the need for hacks. The new version adds the ability to easily crop selections, incorporates Cleartone technology for optimizing sound quality for the iPhone speaker, and includes 40 bundled ringtones. iToner 2 is priced at $15, but is a free update for existing iToner users. A free trial is also available.

Smule, creators of the popular Ocarina application (being demoed above), have released their newest offering, Zephyr [App Store].
