How the Years Go By!

Up until I moved to Tenerife seven years ago I was well up with all the gadgets. Mobile phones and computers were my thing and I knew all the new fads.

I´ve just got a new mobile which is really great. It has a really big screen which a ´grannie´ needs! The problem is that I hate the ring tone but it wants me to go online to change it. Will it cost me the earth and will this Bluetooth thing help?

I do hate to admit this..............

Re: How the Years Go By!

Shouldnt have to go online to change a ring tone.

Should be a few standard ones to choose from, usually in a menu option.

Make and Model will help a lot, you van also get FREE stuff of the net.

Bluetooth is more to connect the phone to other phones to share information ect or to connect it to your PC to again share info between phone and PC or vice versa.

Re: How the Years Go By!

It´s a Samsung E250 and after messing about for half an hour I´ve managed to change the ringtone.

Thanks for the explanation about Bluetooth. I don´t need to worry about that! I hate this getting old business.

Re: How the Years Go By!

Well!! I did state in my last post that I wouldn´t need bluetooth but having talked to a mate in the bar today I´ve realised how easy it is.

I took a pic of Clio earlier and decided to send it to my old phone which now belongs to ´im indoors. After it had searched it came up with ´junetta´. How on earth did it know that?

Well scary.
