I hear about friends that are helping their mom's enter contacts into the phone every now and then, and so this would address that issue. Here's my question - are they going to teach them how to do these things on a simpler cell phone or just any phone? It seems like a lot of the phones now are getting pretty bloated and filled with things that aren't needed. Someone should take a step back and make a product for people who just want to make phone calls and maybe the occasional text message, not people who want to play snake, take photos with a camera, get on twitter, etc. I’d imagine that the people reading this blog have either had to help someone use their phone or know someone that has.

I'm always surprised that I never see any sort of training classes offered. My local Home Depot offers free classes on various home improvement projects....knowing damn well where you will go to buy the supplies you will need. Isn't time mobile phone stores started offering free training? Let's home Sprint does this right. That’s a great idea. I’m always surprised that I never see any sort of training classes offered.
