The SnowBored game is very simple. The snowboarder goes down on his own. Pressing any button on the keyboard or the wheel will make the snowboarder go up. The speed is not constant so don't expect yourself to go up or down immediately. The longer it goes up, the longer it takes to go back down. If you try it for a while, you'll get used to it. ;)

I got the copy of those stars saved on my sidekick. It is hard to make one but if you want one, i can text/email you the stars so you can save it onto your notes and use it via copy/paste (I do that if I want to use the stars for email or whatnot). I don't think you can just "type" it in and it will turn into the stars.

Also--Did yall know about those monkey faces?
Somewhat like this: @(oo)@ ? @(^^)@ et cetera...
Is there more? I dont like those monkey faces. :-D

You can't really change your font and type it in. There is a different font that's a mix of New Times Roman and Courier New. It's actually a copy-n-paste feature.

HARD?!? Nah it is sooo simple.. Just while you press and hold on ALT then press space bar. Let it go and type 2605. You wont see # but it will appear the black star after you complete the #. Just go to http://www.unicode.org/charts/ as there are lots more you can play around. Sadly, not all unicode characters will work. If you see square, it means that it is not working with SK.
Another character I know is 2122 it will show "tm"
Have fun

"Fetch" it's download the email message to SK2 cellphone from your Gmail account..

It's like a dog plays... "Hey bojo, fetch this!" (threw sticks away from person) the dog running to pick the stick up and bring them back to person.
 
Unicode Tricks

The stars and other symbols are unicode. You need to know the code in order to make them appear.
(Or you can cut and paste them)
Here is the unicode for some basic symbols:
FOR ALL SYMBOLS:
- 1. First press and hold the SYM key. At the same time,
press the SPACEBAR key. Release both keys.
- 2. Then enter one of the following codes:
(you will not see the numbers as u enter them but if you
enter the code correctly, the symbol will appear).
- White Star: 2606
- Black Star: 2605
- Musical Note: 266A
- Female Symbol: 2640
- Male Symbol: 2642
- Copyright Symbol: 00a9
- Circle Symbol: 25cb
- Triangle Symbol: 25b3
- Arrow Left Symbol: 2190
- Arrow Right Symbol: 2192
- Arrow Up Symbol: 2191
- Arrow Down Symbol: 2193
- Chinese Characters: 995, 300a, 300b, 300c, etc..., 3001,
3002, 3003, etc..., 9999, 8888, 7777, 6666, 5789,
