ICS on the Tab 10.1 - 2 questions

[hannsoft]

Folks,

Got my update to ICS - nice! Two questions .... 1, anybody know what the deal is with this airplane icon down in the corner? There isn't an airplane mode that I can see anymore (not that there would need to be for a Wifi-only device, right?), so I have no idea what gives with the icon.

Also, what exactly is Driving Mode??

There is an airplane mode in settings. You have it checked.

Driving mode is your GPS. Sounds like you have it activated and ready to give turn by turn directions,

Thanks, Bubba, that was it! But what the heck IS airplane mode on a Wifi only device?

Actually Sue I have it off right now, until I learn what it is. In ICS it's a setting right off the main menu there, along with GPS, Wifi, etc. You think this allows me to use the tab as a GPS device in a car?

Airplane mode is under settings,click on 'more' under wireless and networks.

OK, Chuck I think I saw that said somewhere else too - thank you. Now the question is how to get it to work. ;-) Apparently it's more than just turning it on, cuz I'm not bearing anything..
