Re: camera phone as "alternative"

[Iain <iain.coghill@eiflex.com>]

It depends more on the phone than the computer. I am lucky in that mine 
has a regular USB cable and, when attached, works like a memory stick. 
Others need a special cable which may or may not have been supplied with 
the phone. You may also be able to use BlueTooth if you have such an 
adapter on your computer. Be aware that regardless of how many zillions 
of pixels your son's phone's camera has, the image that was sent to his 
sister's will be tiny. Best option is to get son to download himself and 
email it.
