About LinkBacksI'm perhaps a bit older than many of you on the forum and I need some assistance.
I stumbled on this forum because I was disappointed that I got a new Droid but it did not come with any instructions. I've been searching the web daily to find a manual of sorts but apparently nothing is available.
I've been reading the forums to look for information on personalizing my phone but have not gotten very far. I know I could be doing so much on this phone, but I'm just not even sure how to start.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a non-tech saavy person on how to get started to learning how to get the most of of her new droid?

03-17-2010 09:19 AMThanks AnneDroid,
My issue now is that with your help and with Corinacakes, I've been playing on the phone rather than working....

I am certainly not a technological wizard"ess" but as I am getting older, I'm liking this stuff more and more.
I love this phone and I want to be able to get my money's worth. I just am stunned that there was no manual with it. -

03-17-2010 10:02 AMWelcome aboard. With a place like this place no manuals are needed! There is a learning curve to the phone but you get past it fairly quickly. I've had my phone since November and am still discovering apps, features, things I can do with it and to it.
