    How is the Skyrocket overall?

    Since no one responded to your question, yes you can get screen captures. Just touch the "home button" and press the power key at the same time. They are stored in a special file which is available with file manager or the pictures app. Regards, <TED>

    Navigation Apps ?

    I'm using Sygic GPS Navigator. It does a good job and maps are stored on the phone. (This is important to me since I travel a fair amount so I have the US and Western Europe stored on the phone).

    SD Card Nonsense

    I Put music downloads from Amazon on my external SD card by putting the external SD card (in an adapter) in my computer and copying to a directory I created in the card named MUSIC. My music plays from there no problem. Just a thought! <TED>

    Chomp SMS vs. Handcent SMS.

    While I do not use it, Chomp does - assuming you mean an audible notification (there is an icon in the notification bar for unread messages in any event and there is a widget that shows the number of unreads you have in the application icon which I do use). Just how effective the ongoing...

    Chomp SMS vs. Handcent SMS.

    How much do they charge to get the ad free version of Chomp? (I couldn't find the figure on their web page...) <TED>

    Easy Tether questions.

    One would think that Easy Tether would implement cloaking to take care of that little problem... <TED>
