We get them because they are free with our service for the sales people and directors.

I have an iPhone and so does the CEO, President, and Senior VP of the company.......
So Steve are you also saying I made a bad choice in getting BB's?

weird stuff, no ring, can't make a call, screen freezes, long delayed reactions, no mail, it can vary by model.

firmware is what they do to fix problem issues with the software on the phone.

Evening guys.

Did not want to start anything Troy with the Dodge truck, but may be a good deal.

I am thinking on going to that auction. Heck, I also have an extra loader around. As Arsenio Hall said " Things that make you go hmm".

Laugh at that truck with loader, but I wish I had it when my Bobcat gelled and I had to use the 3020 without a cab to plow snow.

I would hate to get rear ended by him, but he would be handy to change a tire.

Thanks for the tip on the cookie cleaner Steve. Between that and my new anti virus my computer is twice as fast. I am running a Verizon air card for all my internet, can not get high speed where I live accept for satelite, so every little bit helps.

Glad I could help, are you using the Verizon 3g wireless network?

Yeah Steve, 3G, downloads at about 80-100 kb/sec now. Before the new antivirus and a new air card it was 8kb.sec at times.
