Verizon wants to teach you about smartphones

A lot of Apple stores offer classes and tutorials on how to use their products. Now, Verizon is going to do the same. Starting today, two of Verizon’s stores in Manhattan will offer workshops on “20 Things a PDA Can Do For You.”

They will cover how to sync your music, text messaging, Bluetooth, and address book synchronization. With all the advances in cell phones, sometimes you forget how complex these machines really are.
