Yeah. I suppose I did. But when it all comes down to the shouting just as long as you have neutrons at the right energy to keep the fission process going all the rest of that stuff is just radiation.:cigar:

What I tell my kids is while driving put the electric leash in the glove box. It's okay to let it ring or alert you of an incoming message/email. Check it when you get to your destination. Baby steps!

When you get the hang of using the phone you can start finding some pretty cool apps. Sibleys has there bird book but it is a little spendy as most of the birding apps can be. I also have iBird Pro. They are both great because now you have the sounds the birds make to help you ID them. Some good weather apps are My-Cast and Radarscope. I subscribe to My-Cast and get alerts when lighting is getting close. Helps when I am out in the boat fishing to keep me aware that stuff is getting close. Another good one is Relax Melodies. Use it when I am on the road staying in a motel to block out noise. Nothing like the pitter patter of rain to help you sleep.

Welcome to the digital age! Check out the Harmon Kardon Onyx Studio. The best sounding bluetooth speaker I have ever heard, and even though it isn't real big it can get REAL loud. It ain't cheap, but it's worth it.

i have the logitech Ultimate Ears MINI boom... roughly 65$. amazing sound quality for the size and price. the next size up is the regular boom (200$), then the ultimate boom (300$)
whats cool about the mini boom - there is a free app available for your phone where you can get two mini booms (if needed) and connect to them at the same time. you would have surround sound out of the 2 speakers. i dont have the regular or ultimate booms, so i cannot say if this option is available on those models.

Possible now with all sizes, and you can use your phone as a remote. I have the boom. I think they are now 180.00

Well I am honing in ( sort of) on a speaker choice. It will probably be one of the following: UE Mega boom or Bose Soundlink Mini. Quite a lot different in Price. UE at $300 and Bose at $179. What say ye?

try to head down to a best buy to test them out. if you like the UE better, and are comfy spending the cash...then enjoy it! Bose makes solid audio gear.
