Hi all. I am new to the S3 and I love it! I have some 'newby' questions that I hope I get some help and/or direction:

How do I delete email from my device and not delete them from my desktop at work? My BB had a simple toggle to customize the delete features.

When I add calender entries to my device, they do not load onto my Outlook/Desktop (Outlook). What are the steps to get them to sync properly?

When I disconnet the wifi connection, does the phone automatically pick up the cell signal for internet and data usage? This does not seem to happen every time.

I have the Otterbox rubber case with belt clip. I like it but it is huge. Can anyone recommend another belt clip case that provides good drop protection but is not as big? I know they are on Ebay but I would like personal experience if possible.

Thanks for the help!

what app are you using for your email? and what type of email account is it
 
Make sure that in S Calendar you choose Google Account as you default one so that every time you create an appointment it syncs with your Google Calendar.

I honestly don't know. I think it came with the phone. I didn't download an app for email.

Who are you using as an email provider (e.g. yahoo, gmail, Microsoft exchange server)? It really hard to determine your root problem with the scant information you have provided.

I personally went with the Seidio Active Combo, described here.

Nice trade off between protection, style and bulk, particularly if you are looking for something to holster.

In the end, there are *lots* of choices and opinions :)
