New Smart Phones?

3/19/2011

 
Last Thursday night I did something I don’t like to do, I entered the Verizon Store on Miller Road in Flint Township. This place always costs me money. There is always a long line and lots of people. There are too many phones that seem to do the same thing. I always fear I will get that salesperson that does not have a clue. Did not want to go but had to have a phone that works.

Good news, there was a parking spot! They had remodeled the store so the flow was better. The salesperson was nice and seemed like he knew what he was doing. We had been paying for the “plan” so he ordered us two new Blackberry 2 phones and said they would arrive at our house on Friday, no cost. They did! It was just a little too easy. There were two different boxes one for each phone with the phone number on the box.

I opened the one with my phone number, looked at the parts and the directions and said no, not right now. Saturday afternoon Tim asks me “Are you going to use your new phone?” I said no- too many steps and then we will have to do it again when Tina gets home with her phone. Tim said that he would do it.

Ok. 2-3 hours later, 70 minutes on the phone with tech support it seems to be working. Whoever shipped the phones put the one with Tina's number in my box and maybe visa versa? Tina you might want to clear your schedule when you want to get yours working. Smart Phones!

So, staying till 6 p.m. tomorrow night might not be a good idea? Sigh.... hopefully you worked out all the kinks and I'll come home and magically it will work. :D Ok, back to reality. Thanks for the headsup. :) Miss you!!
