We would use our cheap phones or try to sneak a camera into the casino to take pictures then try to download. Well we would try to do trip reports but it was so awkward and frustrating at times.I know what you are going through but in our case we switched from VZ to ATT and both have state of the art phones, unlimited talk and text, and more data than we had at VZ for not much more than we were paying before.
I have a wonderful digital camera -- several years old so it is a little bulky, and that new tablet I told you about. With both, transfer is a breeze. But this little cheap phone is a pain. it is supposed to be both bluetooth enabled and also supposed to enable me to transfer photos when I attach it to my computer via USB -- neither works. What I have to do is send the photo to my email, and then download and save. ugh! What I like about it is that it is cheap, easy, and holds a charge for just about forever. I hate to talk on the phone, so I carry it because my husband insists I have a phone. I had a better one -- maybe I wrote you about it last fall. I lost it just before our Reno trip, so I ran out and bought this little one to carry on our trip. I love that I rarely have to charge it. About a month ago I found the lost one under the seat of the car.....duhhhhh We had searched there for it many times, but couldn't see it. It must have shifted position -- it has many more features, a better camera, and it is easy to transfer photos. But it barely holds a charge for even a day -- hated that! Anyway, I tried to email 3 of our wins from Joliet, but only one is showing up in our email. I will try to post that:
