   When I got this phone I saw many, many names/SSIDs in the listing.   
   Seeing that is what made me decide to torn Wi-Fi off on this phone.   
      
   (as You can see I'm learning how to quote)   
   Sorry for quoting your whole post, but I would be forever removing text so I   
   could begin answering you.   
      
   I'm just not comfortable using the phone on a BBS - yet.
