Forums

We’ve provided eight forum opportunities for you to share your experiences on using the different features of your wireless devices. We’ve based the forums on the features most commonly mentioned in more than 1000 responses to our Survey of User Needs. In each of the forums, you will find comments from our user-testers describing their experiences using the features including their usefulness, usability, and desirability. You may want to agree or disagree with these comments or add some of your own. Your experiences may be different because of differences in your own abilities and preferences. You may find the forums especially useful when considering what you’re searching for in your next wireless product. Throughout these forums, you’ll find links to resources that we, our testers, or other forum visitors have found. Feel free to visit these, share your comments about them, or add new ones. You are encouraged to share your own experiences so that others can learn from your own experiences, but feel free to spend some time following discussions ("lurking") before you post. The site administrator will review all comments you submit before they are posted, so there may be a short lag between the time you submit your comment and when it is viewable on the site. We look forward to reading about your experiences!
