Thanks for the encouragement! Gabe’s right, it went pretty smoothly. Probably the toughest part was installing the SIM card! <grin> Big fingers, tiny card, no sight. But with a little trial and error, and being very careful where I put the little card on my desk, I did get it. I also had a bit of trouble lining up the viewer during the initial link-up, so decided to verify manually. That was easy as well. I’m now just doing some final tweaking, and all does look extremely good.
