    Nope, sorry, the phone is aptly named ... it's the user that's in doubt ... you're not alone but I am surprised you're behind me THAT far in adapting to technology!

    My wife "made" me do it a year ago. I kept my old flip phone just in case..... So far I'm not happy with the big size. But I do like being able to check email and look things up. The phone is way smarter than I need. We (wife) did get it pared up with my helmet headset, 'Sena. So now I can answer and talk on the phone while riding..... Yippee Can't remember just exactly how that works and pretty sure I don't want to remember.

    You can not believe the screaming and kicking that it took to get him into the 21st century. BUT you will be totally blown away with the info that he also let me put up a web site for him, YES, I'm still in shock too. www.blueknight911.com this is the official site, but of course, while I was on a roll, I couldn't control myself and tried a second idea, which he shot down, BUT you know me. www.blueknight911.com/index2.html

    Here's a tip. Let your 6 year old grandchild teach you how to use it. It worked for me - but he was REALLY patient!

    Stay away from Face book if you can. It can be a huge waste of time. I've shut off the notifications for F/B and only use when I want to post.
