Got my Parents into Android with D2G - Some Questions

So I just got my 60 year old parents to jump into the Android world with some D2Gs. This is the first smartphone for the both of them (they're coming from an LG Voyager and an LG flip phone - that was free). I'm trying to help them out in getting started, and got them up and running last night. I pretty much just went through the basics with them, phone calls, texts, emails, how to change wallpaper, how to browse the Market, and I set them up with custom battery profiles and other phone settings to try to help out their battery usage. I really couldn't do too much for them, because it was a little overwhelming and they didn't want to learn anymore for the night before they learned a little bit on their own.

My question is, what is different between the DX and the D2G? I've had my X since September and pretty much have it down-ish. I know the obvious ones: slide-out keyboard that I don't really know how to use, the fact that it's global (so I changed their network settings from global to CDMA), that the D2G has pocket mode that locks it when it's in your pocket, that the D2G has Profiles like the Pro, and the other hardware differences like size, camera, etc.

Is there anything else besides those few things that are different in the D2G from the DX that I should know when I'm trying to help them out?

Thanks!
 
Not really. Aside of the spec differences they operate pretty much the same, they're both Motorola phones. Even the menus are pretty much the same, at least from what I can tell from my boss's Droid X.

Thanks! That's kind of what I figured. I looked through it and pretty much picked out the few things that were different that I listed above. They're gonna need some assistance in getting these babies working properly, so I didn't want to miss anything. Thanks again.
