[Nyboy]

After tring 6 times to send a tx last night I broke down. I left it to fate I decided if Verizon was open today I would up grade. I now have a new iphone

Whoa Nyboy! Is your head spinning? I think you'll love it and wonder what took you so long.

It is very user friendly, you'll figure it out. You can take great pictures with it, log on to TEG and post them!

yes Iphone 7 for some reason my old phone was not getting service at home or work. I really had no choice. Remember when holiday meant every place closed.

Suggestion as they don't receive signals as well as flips, Apple has a setting that allows phone to use wifi signal. Get it switched on. Had a signal amplifier at home but Provider keeps messing with it on their end.

My MIL has been hesitant to get a smartphone, worries that she might not be able to figure it out. I think they are easier, being touch screen. It comes second nature to most three year olds. I find I check TEG more now that I carry you guys around with me all day, lol. There are days I am not home long enough to sit down to the computer. I also check the weather forecast obsessively now too. And I snap pictures of notes and documents and throw the paper away. When I'm out of town, I ask my phone for restaurant recommendations. Or where the nearest gas station is. My phone beeps and tells me when there's a severe weather warning. And I can't function without my phone's calendar. You will love your new phone!

That's the thing. Use it for what you are comfortable with. If just to use as a phone, ok. But over time it becomes so much more. So many good, productive apps for free out there.
