We have Verizon but we're on a family plan so I'm not much help on this one. You could probably do it for under 80 depending on how many minutes you need and how much texting you do. Keep in mind though, that texting to another iPhone is free so if a lot of your textees are iPhone users you can get by with a minimal texting plan. I have the pandora app on my iPhone that I only use at home. That way I'm connecting to my network rather than Verizon's and I don't eat at my data plan. A really cool app, especially if your not particularly good with music *coughArwencough* is Shazam. You can "tag" songs on the radio to find out the name of the song and the artist. It'll also give you the option to buy the song (from iTunes, of course). Another app that I really like, and have had since my 3G, is called Around Me. It's basically a locator app and if you have it set to use your current location you can search for things near you (either by name or category), wherever you are. I hadn't used it a whole lot since since I got the 4S, but when Siri took a couple hours off the other day, I was glad I still had it. |

Mine's improved but part of it is some simple steps. I found deleting the iCloud stuff reduced battery drain considerably. Also regular full drain (once a month) helps keep the battery conditioned. If you do a quick "doubleclick" on the Home button, you can see which apps are still "running". Holding one of them down allows you to force the select app to exit from the Home "bar"

It was interesting. I didn't have it on either and yet, it sucked up resources. I had a discussion with a colleague and he believes that Apple was regularly pinging "home".

I found a cool app for Iphone 4. It's a Flashlight! I think its even called Flashlight and its 99 cents. I couldn't believe how powerful it was. I won;t use it all the time but it sure is nice to have when you need it. Its BRIGHT! I finally broke down and got an ipad. I also stopped buying big clunky desktops and heavy laptops. I like the feeling of being able to move about. I might start in my bed, move to the porch, sit by the barn or by the fireplace. I'm doing everything wireless even my printer and set up an old desktop with external drive to store everything. I can easily send everything across the network. On the rare occasions I need photoshop or the like I'll go to my old desktop but most of the time I'll use pixlar right online.

There is a Photoshop app (called PS Express) and a few other graphic manipulation apps (ColorSplash is my favourite along with Hipstamatic). I'm getting close to going without a laptop/desktop except for my desire to play Warcraft.

Linus, I'm having trouble getting my iPad to sync with iTunes, it simply will not do it. The darn thing gives me an unknown error 13019. Any ideas o' Master of the i World? I do have a crack in the top left face of the screen and I'm 'bout ready to just take it to the Apple Chapel.

No one really needs an ipad, per se. I don't "need" one but had a chance to get one very cheap and decided to get it. At some point, once I have help here, I'll need to travel for a new business project. At that point I'll want a 3G Ipad with more memory. I'll probably give this one to my son or Mia. lol yeah she's only one year old but she goes to down on my iphone and laptop.

![]() For me, I know if i could go completely to an iPad my back would be thrilled because that would mean less to haul when on the road. Much like other computing devices my adage is that if it does what you need then it is needed. If it doesn't then it's a want. I did recently get the 3G iPad 2 and gave my older iPad to K to play with. She likes that she can watch vids while on a treadmill and play Mahjogg as a way to relax after a hard day while watching tv. It will be interesting to see where things are 25 years from now as tech changes so rapidly.

Thanks for finding the info Linus! I haven't tried it yet, I'm sure one of the fixes has to fix my problem. You're the greatest!
