Thank you so much for the advice and links GSDer and MrDoh! I think I'm a little too concerned with emulating my current smartphone experience. It sounds like MTP works just as well as UMS. I'll need to embrace the changes...like a locked bootloader. I've never had to deal with one of those before! I seriously have to get off this forum though. I don't even own this phone yet. It's $100 on Amazon Wireless right now. I'm desperately trying to wait until it becomes a penny phone, but reading through the stickies and root procedures is too much fun! I bet it's no more than a couple of days until I break down and buy it.
