@divegeester saidI cant get my head round it Dive, I am ok with lap tops, the one I am on at the moment screwed up badly a couple of years back it would only run on 32 bit and in safe mode so I bought a windows disc and driver disc and re programed the thing, some of the apps are in russian but hey ho/ps in the corner it says this is not a genuine windows copy.
That’s smart.

@badradger saidI find the pinky is the best way to navigate the smart phone; thumbs are too big and clumsy.

@badradger saidYou sure it is a Samsung galaxy and not simply a galaxy bar? It's just a theory sir, but it's possible those fiddly buttons you are struggling with are actually chunks of chocolate.

@badradger saidhad the same issue with every bit of tiny tech i touched...
I keep mine switched off. too fiddly for my big mitts. no thats not a typo.
then i found out all i have to do is talk to it...
yep, just say to the device, "a dig at divvy in the gf, por favor", and poof it was done...
it did, at times, seem to have a slow down in efficiency, but, i was told that was due to my drawl instead of using the king's english...
damn brits still run the world...

@drewnogal saidwe onlyhave the galaxy and landlinebecause of christines poor eyesight we are either together or she is at home and me out shopping etc pay £15 a month but hardly use it, I facetime my son and daughter I am not really into tech stuff.
Mine’s a Samsung Galaxy. I got one of the cheapest deals and pay under £50 per month for 3 phones. I only use it for calls, WhatsApp video and an alarm clock. I do all of my internet stuff on my iPad.

@badradger
Not sure if my phone is smart or not. It's an LG flip phone that has, unlike my previous one, a sim card so it must at least be a bit smarter than it's predecessor. For me, the thing is used for what it's name suggests...a phone with the "bonus" of being able to take crap pictures.
