Emails

Hey guys,

I am having a problem with my Motorola Droid 2 and my Motorola Xoom (Wi-Fi). I bought the Xoom for a portable emailing device that was bigger than a 3.7 inch screen (Droid 2). Well the Xoom is great and all, but my Droid 2 won’t share its internet with my Xoom via bluetooth. My Droid 2 is rooted, and I am not planning in rooting my Xoom. Do y’all have any suggestions? Love the show, and keep up the good work!

Chris from Texas.

In show #58 you recommended an app for blocking numbers and you recommended CallBlocker. I personally use “Call Blocker Gold” and it’s one of the best apps I have ever used. In fact I’ve read comments of people saying they switched to Android just for this app. Just wanted to let you know. Great show, Thanks Jaime Botero

Jamie it turns out is the developer of this app, at least the owner of the domain
