Sheesh!
I've been using Motorola or LG "flip phones" for a long, long time. Moving to a "now generation" smart phone is like stepping up from a Wright Brothers' flyer to a hot new biz jet, and, for me at least, probably as complicated. The screen is very nice, with more resolution than the iPhone screens. The phone works similarly to the iPhone, though. So far, I've been able to make and receive phone calls (yeah, laugh all you want), set up wi-fi on my secure router, set up the barcode reader to download apps, access the internet over wi-fi and 3Gdata, and a few more things. The phone part is excellent, with a lot of volume in the ear speaker. Like all these small screen devices, including the iPhone, it washes out in strong, direct sunlight. More later. -- The Tea Party's teabaggers are just the Republican base by another name. |

Secure router? Cool! The phone part is excellent, with a lot of volume in the ear speaker. Like all these small screen devices, including the iPhone, it washes out in strong, direct sunlight. High volume comes with old age. More later. No thanks. |

I'm interested to hear more since I have an android phone now and would like to hear the reaction to the newest entry. "Larry" is just the latest screen name for Dan Krueger, Dan K, Bob, et cetera. Different screen name, same old asshole. The "Incredible," as Verizon has tagged it, has a lot more features than I'll ever use, but...some of the widgets/apps are useful. As a phone, it works well. I love the ability to aim the camera at an app online, "snap" a shot of its barcode, and then autodownload the app. I don't see a lot of differences of substance between it and the iPhone. The screen keyboard takes a lot of effort...I assume the Motorola Droid with its real miniature keyboard is a bit easier. -- The Tea Party's teabaggers are just the Republican base by another name. |
