    How about "live from the range"? While shooting at my favorite spot this happened. A huge helicopter was dropping stuff into the kettle moraine forest. Not sure what that was all about. [​IMG]

    Has it been very dry, is the fire alert status on high alert? They might have been dropping fire retardant.

    No actually the conditions are pretty wet. So I'm pretty sure that's not it. They were there for I'd say a good 20 min. and really concentrated on that spot. Not sure what was going on.

    I think you have some wrong information about the iPhone. It doesn't cost anything extra to have or use the phone aspects of the iPhone. All you have to pay extra for are the texting and data packages. I have the unlimited data package on my phone and it cost $30 a month. However, the cheapest data plan is only $15 a month and it's enough data to suit most users.

    This is correct...to an extent. There is a $30/month charge for data/text package, however if you have the iPhone, AT&T requires you to have a data plan before you can use the phone. Where I think Verizon allows you to have a Droid based phone without a data plan, but that doesn't make a lot of sense to have a smartphone and then limit its ability.

    OK, I see what your saying. But like you mentioned what's the point in having a smartphone. Seems kinda silly to me.

    Just got settled in a little late to my first hunt of the year. It feels amazing to be back in the tree.

    Um, not exactly. Verizon requires a 29.99 data plan for all of the Droids. I manage the Internet Customer Support group for the Midwest Area;)

    Multimedia Phones also need either a 9.99 25MB plan or 29.99 Unlimited Plan.

    That's typically not a bad problem to have. ;):D


    Come Saturday morning.... if it's brown it's down for me (within reason i.e. no really small bucks or fawns).

    I'm live from the stand. I just got a new climber and was all excited to use it. I go into a new area of a spot I occasionally hunt and the trees are all perfect for my sticks and hang on, but horrible for a climber.
