    In two weeks you’ll be texting via voice and using Google for phone numbers along with posting on IDO with it.

    Stay out of the xxx sites though.

    Just make sure you check your voice txting before you send it to me…English would be best.

    Its a steep learning curve, first couple weeks can be daunting, but the more you use it the more you’ll get a hang of it.in my later 20′ s when I got mine and my head was still spinning. New phone last month took me a solid week before I really felt confident on it. Hang in there learn to really use it a it won’t be long until you see the how really useful they are. I surf the web now about half the time now on my phone, for both ease and because it works so good, posting on my phone right now.
    Best thing I did with my new goole phone is to filter my email so all the coupon and offers I get daily go to another folder and I’m not getting constant email notification for stupid stuff only the important stuff.

    Oh, you just reminded me of a sore technology spot for me. Way back when I was younger (Hey, I can actually use phrases like that now, awesome!) I put a good chunk of change down on the latest computer. This thing was top of the line 486 DX with a CD ROM, which was unheard of. Sure, the tray was manual, but it was a CD ROM!

    About 6 months later they started coming out with “Multi Media” Computers with Pentiums! Not only were the CPUs way better and the system came with speakers/sound boards, but the dang CD trays popped open and closed with automatic gears.

    Phew…I finally let it go. I’ve held that in for decades.

    You’ll catch on. I got my wife an Evo for Christmas, and we are catching on quickly. Heck, my MIL has a Droid, and she is about as technically challenged as anyone I know! I’m posting from the Evo now!
