Just be patient. I have found that in the warmer, summer months my tomatoes set fruit and ripen much quicker than the ones I plant later in the season. I suspect that since the temps are a bit cooler, it's just taking a little longer.

Most varieties won't set fruit if the temps are consistently over ninety degrees. That should be changing soon. Also, try tapping your tomato cages or stakes with a stick to make the plants "vibrate" a little. This will help with pollination.
