through the homescreen panels.

With AT&T Navigator and assisted-GPS, the BlackJackII leverages both
satellite and cellular technology to get you to your destination on time.

Utilize your smartphone capabilities by using your phone as a high-speed
wireless modem for your laptop. It’s easy to set up and even easier to
connect. Just click and go!

- Mobile Banking
Perform secure banking transaction with many of the nation’s largest banks

Smart Limits

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Parents! Tired of being shocked by your childrens’ cell phone usage, whether it be minutes, texting, or media?

Here’s a new service that enables you to set those boundaries so you can avoid those monthly surprises for only $4.99/month per line!

AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless allows you to determine specifically how and when your child can use the phone. You can set limits for:

-Number of text and instant messages

-Dollar amount of downloadable purchases (ringtones, games & more)

-Times of day the phone can be used for messaging, browsing, and outbound calling

- Who the phone can call or text (incoming and outgoing) by blocking or allowing certain numbers

- The access of content inappropriate for children

As your child approaches their given limits, he/she will receive an advance warning. Once the limit is reached, a notification will be sent to the phone that the action is restricted and the service will be stopped until the next billing cycle begins.

* This product cannot currently be used to set specific monthly limits for minutes. All incoming calls are allowed at all times except from numbers you designate as “Blocked Numbers.”

Come visit any of our 6 locations if you have any additional questions!

GVENT

Friday, July 11th, 2008

Google Calendar users..This ones for you!

If you didn’t already know… Google has this lovely phone-friendly feature called GVENT.

GVENT is an SMS feature that comes with Google Calendar. If, for example, you can’t remember when, what time, and where your next meeting is, you’re away from your computer and don’t feel like logging onto your Gmail account on your phone, all you have to do is text “next” to GVENT (dial 48368) and you’ll get back the time and details of your next scheduled event.

There are other tricks that you can use… If you want to know your whole day’s appointments, text “day” to GVENT (dial 48368) and you will receive your entire day’s appointments. You can also text “nday” for tomorrow’s appointments.

Finally, the coolest feature about GVENT is that you can type a detailed appointment into your phone and text it to GVENT to be added to your Google Calendar. For example, “Lunch with Cindy at Silver Peak tomorrow at noon.” Text it to GVENT (dial 48368) and it will be added immediately.

Before you start using GVENT, you must configure it for use with your phone. In your Google Calendar, click the Settings link, then choose Mobile Setup. Follow the simple instructions, and you’re set to go!
