Answer by Chicken Little
I'd suggest two possibilities: either get a phone with large buttons, or get a phone that you can set up to respond to voice commands. Avoid phones with tiny buttons; those take a lot of control, even for people whose coordination skills are "normal."
Good luck!
Answer by LaVerne S
I don't know if your laptop is bluetooth compatible. Mine isn't, so I went to Walmart and bought a bluetooth adapter that plugs into my USB port for $ 20. I put my cell phone (Motorola V323i) into discovery mode, and told the laptop to search for all devices within range. It saw my phone within 10 seconds.

How close is it to your upgrade date?
I would look on Ebay. Just make sure you read the feedback on the person before you buy anything. I bought a phone off Ebay a while back and it worked just fine. I don't trust unlocked phones. My friend has one from Verizon unlocked for Cricket, and it cut away some of the messaging features. Do any of your friends have an old Verizon phone?
Answer by Forrest
Tell them it's necessary. You can call them when you get places, so they know you're okay. You could use it in emergencies. And you can text friends instead of tying up the house phone.

Answer by emotionalzombie7997
Your dad needs to figure out how much he can afford to spend each month on a cell phone plan. Once he has figured out what provider he will use you should go to that providers website and see what phones are offered. Then read some reviews on each of the phones that you like. Then make an educated decision on the best phone for you.

Answer by CrackBerry Addict
BlackBerry devices can make calls and receive text messages even if a data plan is not active. However, Verizon is a carrier that requires that you add the BlackBerry data plan if you are going to be using a BlackBerry on their network. Removing the data plan is not an option like it is with other carriers.

4G is a wireless technology term meaning "Fourth Generation." 4G follows 3G as the latest addition to AT&T's mobile broadband network. When combined with enhanced backhaul, 4G means faster speeds, where data transfers take less time to complete.
AT&T has upgraded the software of its nationwide mobile broadband network with HSPA+ which, with enhanced backhaul, enables speeds up to 4x faster than AT&T's already fast mobile broadband speeds. And now, AT&T is evolving to even faster 4G speeds with the launch of AT&T's 4G LTE technology in select markets.
Backhaul is one of the major pieces of a telecommunications network. Think of it as the limbs connecting AT&T's cell towers with AT&T's backbone network that provides access to the Internet.
AT&T is the only network offering two layers of 4G technology: HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul and LTE, both capable of delivering 4G speeds. Customers will have access to fast speeds as they move in and out of 4G LTE areas. Customers of competitors who do not have HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul are likely to see a steep drop-off in speeds when they move out of LTE areas.
In areas where either AT&T's 3G or 4G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways.
AT&T Navigator: This premium GPS navigation application includes audible turn-by-turn directions, real-time traffic updates and re-routing options, and 3D moving maps (additional charges applicable). AT&T Navigator offers several other features to make your commute more enjoyable and reliable, including mobile access to Yellowpages.com. You'll be able to find the closes ATM, restaurant, gas station, Wi-Fi hotspot and more with over 10 million business listings.
AT&T FamilyMap: Locate any phone indoors or outdoors on the AT&T Network. FamilyMap provides peace of mind by being able to conveniently locate a family member from your wireless phone or PC and know that your family's information is secure and private. Want to verify that your child arrives home from school each day? Set up a Schedule Check to automatically get location information sent to you via text message or e-mail.
