What's great is that in two weeks of ownership, I haven't found many "tricks" to be necessary with the S2. To me, this is indicative of a very well thought-out product. Everything is intuitive and just...works.

Really, the only trick I've learned with my 3G version is to make sure that Mobile Networks is set to "Auto Switch", not "Always On". If you leave it set to "Always On", your battery won't last 12 hours.

Also on S2 3g, already set to auto-switch. But, do you leave Wifi on or off? I'm wondering what's better since, even if on, it will auto connect bluetooth to phone.

You can capture a screenshot by simultaneously pressing the Home key and swiping from the left of the screen to the right.
Doesn't work for all apps.

Where does the screen shot get saved?

you can get a file manager for the S2 to search where it might be?, I suspect it will appear on the notifications on your phone,
just as when you take a voice memo to sync on the phone.

It gets saved straight to the gallery app on the watch and you have the option to transfer it to your phone
