Looks like Magic!
In Response To: Passing files.... ()

There's a quote to the effect: 'To a primitive society, technology looks like magic' - or something like that...
Anyway, tablet out of the box is limited. Perhaps I should have guessed that? But with add-in apps and add-on devices, the bounds have yet to be found.
Today managed to transfer the Admiral's contact list from the PC to the tablet - 340 names and email addresses! The tablet wanted .vcf file format which the PC wouldn't provide. Managed to output Mozilla addresses to .csv format, then an online site transformed to .vcf - like magic. Didn't take me more than about 2 hours, but that beats typing in 340 names and email addresses.
Wondering about some of the addresses though - what's 'privateshow@chipperfield.com?
My contact list has 8 addresses. Most frequently used seem to be 'auditfail@irs.gov' and 'dumpster30yd@sterlingwaste.com'. Do you suppose you can tell stuff about folks from their contacts list??
