Problem with partial uploads

Hello,

I am writing an application which uses a blutooth usb adapter and
widdcomm drivers.
The user sends a file to a pc which is then integrated into a flash
movie via a php script.

My problem is this: with some phones the file is not available in
Windows until the transfer is complete (great no problem) but with
other phones the file becomes part of the file system when it is only
say half uploaded.

Php has no means of telling when a file is complete although a work
around would be to check the file size for a certain time until it has
stabilized.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience of this issue, any
thoughts or anything really?

Thanks,

Gavin
