How to understand your mobile phone

21st Apr 2010

Technology is a wonderful thing... if you understand it. From the feedback YOURLifeChoices receives from you, our subscribers, we know that a simple guide to what's what when it comes to mobile phones, internet and email, would go down a treat. In collaboration with Telstra, we are putting together a series of How to understand technology information sheets, which will be issued in 12 installments.

We plan to keep them simple, while giving as much information as possible. We would love to have your feedback on whether you find them useful and what other topics you would like covered. Remember, we are here to give you what you need.

This month's issue covers How to understand your mobile phone and is illustrated using a Samsung A412 "senior friendly" phone. It takes you through all the basic topics such as:

- What is a menu?
- How do I select a menu option?
- Using menus to change your volume
- Changing your profile
-And much more
