Mule Deer...I read this and went into panic mode! I have no idea what this means other than that I have a flip phone that I have been using for around 12years without any issues. It does all I need from a phone...send calls, receive calls text messages and receive messages. I have no wish to buy one of those over priced phones that everyone I know has tend to fail after a very short period. Guess I'll have to go to Wally World and see if I can find one of the $19.99 ones like you just purchased. If any of the tech savvy fire members would care to try to educate me on what all this means I sure would appreciate it! Hate to lose my old friend!
