Thanks everyone.
Knitchick, I'm enjoying the new phone. You might check with your carrier about whether your phone will still work after the first of the year. I don't know if the upgraded towers is something local or national.
Am not sure how much I will use the phone instead of a computer. I are an old fart with poor vision. Using the screening a lot bothers them. On the other hand I like being able to check the news when I want.
amicus_curiae, I agree that we old farts can be just as tied to our phones as kids. I have a friend who spends unhealthy amounts of time on her phone. I'm spending more time with the phone than usual right now, but suspect it is because it's a new toy. I expect that within a few days that will fade. I spend so much time on the phone and computer at work that I like to unplug when I get home.
edited to add...
I forgot to mention... My old phone had some pictures I really wanted to save. Some were of my yellow lab I had to put down. I'd tried and tried to load them on my computer or burn a CD at a store, but none of the machines recognized the phone. The tech at the store was able to save them to the new phone!!!!  :  It was funny. When the tech was scrolling through the pictures to make sure they were all there he was telling me what he saw... "cats.... cats.... cats... dog....cats... IS THAT A DONKEY!?!?!" Yeppers, the neighbor's donkey had a foal years ago. It was the cutest little thing I had to take some pictures.
