I have an auxiliary battery that I can plug into the USB port. It recharges the phone battery. It works well - when I remember to carry it with me.

Well with the Blackberry if I plug it into the USB of the PC it will charge. I also have one of the car chargers in my car but most times the battery will last a working day and I use it loads on the web. So I will unplug it in the morning at around 06:30 and when I get home around 18:00 it needs charging but some days I do need to use the car charger.
Carl does your one come with internet as the Blackberry I pay 12.00 ZAR = 1.47708 USD a month for unlimited internet except for YouTube and video sites. This is a great feature and I love it. The funny thing is before I had it I could not even send an SMS but now I can text and type normally on the Blackberry and I think it is more because the keyboard layout is as it should be on a PC

Give the phone or tab to your kids/grandkids - they'll have it sorted in seconds!
Yeah but then you need loads of food for them so it may just be cheaper to get the tech support to come and do it for you 
I'll provide the food no problem because you can't get a techie out at 10pm but I can haul his teenage *** out of his room to sort it out. 
I can't even get a DVD to play on our system it's so complicated - I just call Liam and he sorts it. And it's about to get more complicated. Farside and I still have a massive collection of vinyl LP's and they're making a come-back. Last night Farside announced he's buying a new turntable to hook up to the existing system - so that's just another bit of complication added to the set up.
The call of "LIAM! HELP!" will now be heard ringing through our house more often! :y11:

We both kept our collections for some unknown reason - take up a lot of space. But now I'm glad we did. Have you seen the price some LP's are going for on e-Bay? I bet loads of people who sold or gave away their collections are really sorry now! I think we're going to have a lot of fun dragging out the LP's again and listening to them again after about 20 years of storage - talk about a walk down memory lane! So ok, maybe some memories will be a bit fuzzy now - at 92 my memory's a bit shot. Either that or they've been blurred by a smoke induced daze 70's was a good era.
70's was a good era.
What's a '2stroke smoke'?? On second thoughts, don't go there or you'll bring out one of my 57 other personalities.
Aaah shame Dave. I feel sorry for you.........................NOT! Especially after that rhino clip you just posted. 
Yeah it is cool just to be able to experience these thing in a working day
I still have somewhere between 500-1,000 LP's, including some collector items which I will never dispose of. I was offered $5,000 for my entire collection about 5 years ago and laughed it off - wouldn't take three times that!
Now I feel even worse maybe I should have not just given my collection away
Yes it does. I pay $25.00 per month for internet access.
That is the gospel truth!!
I have a good collection of vinyl LP's and a a fair collection of 78 rpm records.
Smoke..mmmmmmmmmmmmmm I love the smell of 2stroke smoke
Ditto!!
Wow that sounds expensive for internet from a phone
That is the whole smart phone package. My basic phone was $50.00 per month; it is now $75.00 per month. Unlimited texting would add another $15.00 per month.
Oh ok then that is not bad at all I suppose
