The Book

The Internet is not a big truck. It’s a series of tubes.

A bench is not a big table. It’s a series of boards.

A newspaper is not a big newsletter. It’s a series of articles.

Mac and cheese is not a big meal. It’s a series of bites.

A date is not a life contract. It’s a series of conversations.

I have been spoiled with the Blackberry OS. You go to one command and it wipes everything. Ghetto phones (that is non iOS, Blackberry, Android, etc) seem to not want to simplify this.

Some tutorials and videos suggest the password is 0000 – I found it was 1234 on this phone.

Before sending this phone out I did three things:

*Settings -> Reset Settings (this seems to be preferences and such)
*Settings -> Memory Management -> Clear Memory (address book, downloads, pictures, ringtones, etc)
*Dial -> Clear -> All (the calls)

Remember that some GSM phones store the contacts on the SIM card!!!

Seems to have gotten everything at this point. YMMV.

Ideal solution for a short distance outdoor ptp link.

In the lab I get 150 megs aggregate (that is 100 by 50 megs due to the 100BaseT port) with AirMAX and 40Mhz channels.
