Techno-Nuisance

I really like my Motorola phone, EXCEPT that they've developed this proprietary gesture system, built on top of the Android gesture system, where you can control all of the device's functions with a series of cryptic taps and swipes on the screen. I disabled that during the initial setup, and now, at least twice a week if not more, I get this popup about "Let's Learn the Gesture System!" It's incredibly annoying, and shows very little respect for the end-user, IMHO. There's probably a way to root that out in the registry, were I sufficiently motivated. I really oughta learn to do that stuff anyway. It's not like Android isn't here to stay.

wow yeah, *nod* I think I blocked updates to avoid stuff like this, after it was swamping me too.... :P

Yeah, I've been just more or less putting up with it. I need to have a bit more motivation.
