This "smart" phone is a wonderful thing I suppose.  It can do way more things than I even imagined.  Way more than I will use.  Its now been 8 days (just over a week) and I think I now know how to do what I need to do.  Took a long time to figure out simple things like how to put it on vibrate for church, but now I can make a call, hear it ring and answer it before it goes to voice mail, end a call, send a text and manage this world of APPS.

I can actually surf the VRCC fairly easily (so this is Valkyrie related) I haven't tried to post a picture from the phone, but Im sure in another 8 days I could figure it out

I actually loaded the Google Earth app today, I use that all the time, and I learned how to turn on and off the locator so I can use it when I want but THEY cant use it when THEY want.  With Google earth if you get lost on a ride, all you do is turn on location services, tap Google earth and as long as you are still on the planet it will show you exactly where you are.  I LIKE THAT

LOL, I just noticed that too......However, my tip about loading Google Earth on phones might just help someone on a long trek to INZANE if they don't have GPS otherwise......
