Re: Backup Assistant -Text charges

You should be fine in using the system purely as a backup. It would be
costly for someone that wanted to make constant changes then download them
to the phone. I feel the same way when I see folks with those Star Trek ear
pieces. In my vehicle I use a BT speaker phone made by Blue Ant.

In conclusion, each time the "auto sync" button is used from the VZW
website it costs you fifteen cents unless you have a text or data plan
Thank you for posting this and for getting the information. I figured that
the above was the reason I had the 15 cent texting charge.

Q: What if I made a change on the Internet site and I also made a change
to my phone, but did not sync them? If I just make the changes, with no
uploading or downloading, it shouldn't cost 15 cents, right?

I could see that the data charges might become a problem for some people,
but I add and delete numbers so seldom that I can't see the charge being
onerous for me. I'm just happy about having a place where I can keep the
numbers and get them into a new phone if the thing that transfers numbers
from an old phone to a new phone breaks. (I hope I'm not getting too
technical <g>)

The cable or bluetooth connection gear is still going to be a lot more
expensive than a 15 cent charge two or three times a year.

The problem with the cables is that they are limited to only that phone. I
have a perfectly good mobile office kit for my last Motorola phone sitting
in a closet. I hate paying $40 or so for a cable when I'm getting a new
phone every 2 years.

As for the bluetooth thing, I have to confess I have one of those
earpieces and I never use it. Until I see the little thing in their ears,
I always think people are running around talking to themselves.
