Eldrick I have a suspicion that that IYKWIM means if you know what I mean

hate predictive text have it permanently off and usually text in mostly full english, as does my daughter. Also usually have to work on translating grandson's e mails to me. So I am learning.

Hi ya Jules, pluging mobile into computer depends on the mobile phone you have, I can do all that too but could be bothered, too much techno stuff.

Thanks Jules

Now what on earth is LJMPRT?

Got rid of the predictive now, thank god. I'm going to get a diffferent phone, this one is obviously designed for teenagers with too much time on their hands.

Thank goodness I've resisted all the efforts of my family and friends to get me a mobile phone... I'm far too old to learn this new language.... and watching some of the youngsters texting I am sure they will not be able to use their thumbs by the time they're 30 lol.

Eldrick, I know we have our different opinons but will help if I can....I can not find your phone listed on the Motorola site, can you check for me and come back and I will try and get you out of the nightmare of predictive text...never thought I would say it.....but I feel for you bud....predictive text is a sodding nightmare (7 years in the mobile industry I might have some idea or perhaps at least I know a man who does)
