OK, I'm well past my plan expiration date... and have opted to keep my Samsung Convoy 2 flip phone up to now. Seems like I'm surrounded by friends and family members wanting to exchange texts with me, so tonight I "took the plunge" and added texting (1000) to my plan for another $10 monthly. Now I'm trying to figure out how to make use of this new-found capability? I looked through Verizon's tutorials, and didn't find my phone (or any basic phone) listed. I hope this doesn't mean that I can't text without changing phones! Can someone offer me some enlightenment? Thanks.
