Has anyone seen the feature under contacts: "Chat using <client>"
Selecting it does nothing, downloaded a few messenger programs and they do nothing, is this a new feature that has not been taken advantage of yet?

yeah im not sure about that is it connected to the google talk chat app thats on the phone? i was wanting to use it but i wasnt sure how to add friends.. i assume they need to have gmail? i also downloaded a yahoo im app but its not connected to my contacts

Yeah I tried downloading direct apps, AIM/Yahoo/etc. and none worked.
I only have a few people on Gtalk and have not used the Talk program so maybe that is what it is for?
Overall I am really liking Android and still working on getting my life on it, more.

Have you guys used Pdnet to tether the droid to a laptop?
I did a demo and got speeds of 1.8 mbps which is not bad, I had this software when I was on a palm treo some years back.

Have had no need to, Trip. But, maybe in the future...

theDreamer 03-10-2010 07:56 PM

I downloaded, but rarely need to tether my laptop.
Usually only on trips, but will keep it on the phone for when the time is ready and report back. :D

Yea I'm sometimes stuck on the job on a New phone installation, and sometimes theres no network connections or while on lunch in a parking lot, this comes in handy, and the best thing is you only pay for it once.

Newp - you can buy it unlocked....

But, if you want a verizon droid without getting the N1...here's the Incredible. Looks pretty bitchin' to me...

thanks! great background!

i haz the MotoDroid too

i texted my friend that has the Nexus One about that issue MC, i'll see what he says when he replies. i haven't had any issues being able to read mine but i can understand how some would want to see the text a little larger or at least have the option

oh and not to sound too cliche'd, there may be an app for that lol

yeah i mean i dont have a problem with it i think the font is large enough,,, im not saying my moms old or anything its just she went from a flip phone to this and she isnt adjusting so well :icon17: she gets so many emails for her job she needs something she feels comfortable using

HKYStormFront 03-16-2010 04:42 PM

haha yea i wasn't gonna say she's getting old but when you posted that i started to wonder if my dear ol' dad is having problems with it as well, he just got a Droid about a month ago. he came from a BB tour though (and an HTC Diamond before that) so at least he was somewhat familiar with the idea of a smartphone. if my mom, on the other hand, got a Droid........ her head would explode lolz
