Welcome back, Greeneyes. You sound so busy, just reading your post makes me tired. 😊 Since you talked about tech issues, can I bring up a FIOS issue and ask for advice? I have Verizon DSL high speed internet in my home bundled with a landline phone, cost is $90/month, no TV in that package (I use an antenna that looks like a closed laptop that I stick in the window that gets 30 channels, good enough for me.) I also have an old Nokia cell phone that I use for emergencies. Okay, Verizon wired our western PA area for FIOS and is telling people with my phone prefix they will pull the plug on my internet and landline phone Nov 1st. A local business down the road was told to schedule an appointment by July 31st or lose service. I don't need that much Wi-Fi in FIOS and I was thinking of getting an IPad with internet access with a monthly plan for $60 for 5G is usage (couple plans out there, Verizon is one. Different prices for 2G etc.) I'm comfortable using Amazon tablets but I never upgraded to IPad. Maybe use cell phone as primary phone. Costs have really come down on nine inch IPad. Best Buy can set me up. Any advice?
You are asking ME???? I am a totally illiterate techno phobe who does not have a smart phone - a little flip phone for emergency calls is it.
I have no idea of the difference between an I phone, tablet, notebook, I Pad etc. And what the heck is FIOS????
I really hope that someone else on the thread can help you, cause I am totally ignorant of tech issues. My grand daughter can run circles around me on the computer.
Recently, sprint purchased my cell phone provider, and sent a letter that our area would no longer have service, and we would need a different provider. So we switched to ATT. Then I got a call from our provider that asked us to return - either sprint changed their mind, or they were all wet to begin with. I just told them too bad - actions have consequences.
Good luck to you on your tech issues. I wish I could help, but I know nothing, nothing, nothing.
