Not in TTN. I don't know whether CheckPOInt can handle MP3, but probably only .wav files.

You can't use mp3 but you can convert the mp3 files you want to use to the OGG file format, then using POIExtend a utility for loading specific files into the required TomTom format is possible, its a bit of messing around - it all depends how much you want the specific sounds you have as mp3 at the moment, for file conversion and the POIExtend utility try Rays site www.tomtomsatnav.info - this has some tips on how to do this and audio file conversion programs to run on the PC - Mike
