[pct-l] P reception

[William A. Chavez]

In my planing for my ill fated hike :( I called Leo Laporte, he is  
known as the "Tech Guy" on KFI 640.  I wanted an I-Phone but Leo said  
that The Blackberry Bold(Blackberry 9000) would be better suited for  
my hike.  I was and continue to be happy with the phone and its  
features.

I posted directly to trailjournals, even though it looked a little  
weird it worked fine.  I also e-mailed pictures and journal entries  
to my wife who in turn posted them for me.  As Postholer has pointed  
out to me Postholer's mobile feature is more convenient.  The camera  
is only 2 mega pixels.  The device does have true GPS and will geo  
tag your pictures as well.
