Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

Anyho....I use it for the games, sometimes.

And I used it in the Great Computer Doesn't Work of January 2009 to access the net.

I know. That's why I never use it. Same with irony.

@dlowan,

Never. (And I would admit if I ever lied, so help me god.)

My iPhone email only works when it can grab an internet connection...which is not often.
I don't get why you don't get it.

Ah, that's a different problem. If the problem you are facing is that you don't get internet connectivity (or cell tower connectivity), then I completely understand. I didn't realize that you were having intermittent connectivity problems.

But you can use email to send a text message to anyone's phone, and any text message can be sent to your email address. I guess I don't understand the problem. Sorry.

I put your number in my phone. Now I can text you. If I have to e-mail, then I've got to put your email in there, too, and take the extra time to select your e-mail address when I send a text -- if I remember, which I probably won't if I'm in a hurry or in the middle of something else, which I usually am if I am texting.

And what deb said, which I didn't think about, not using the web features on my own phone and not living in some backwater third-world city...

That's true, the process is slightly different. And you may have to move your finger a bit more. Wink
