My new smart phone has a boo-boo.... :(

Thanks, Karen.

I have contacted a couple of repair places but with this being a holiday weekend I won't hear for a couple of days.

You have a point - I mean, the phone rings and behaves well, but just the durn touchscreen won't work.

I have it charging right now...is that a good idea?

Thanks again.

OK - I got a phone from a good friend - bought it. A Blackberry Torch 8900.

After not being told to enter the unlock code twice on the same attempt, I unlocked it with one try to go!

Now it says "invalid SIM card". I did change a few functions on it like time and date and shut it down. I restarted it and it came up TELUS (the previous provider) and asked me if I wanted to unlock the phone!!!! GRRRR!

I don't know how to shift it over to Virgin Mobile. This is one of the phones they support.

This will be a looooong day....
