camera phones - sending pix to others
|

| On our Nextel i560 camera phones,
I can take a pix, and send it to an email address.
I have not tried sending to another phone, just email...
In talking to a Virgin Mobile rep,
they seemed to indicate that those users
can only send "in network"
or to a photo album, and then email from there.
Was wondering what capabilities exist
on other systems for handling photos ?

Photos can be sent by MMS (Multimedia Messaging) to a different network if and
only if there is an MMS gateway between the networks.

| From my Sprint PCS picture phone, I have sent pictures to other Sprint
PCS picture phones, to a Verizon picture phone, a Cingular picture
phone, and to regular email addresses. My $15 monthly fee (actually
$15+5+5+5=$30 for all 4 phones on my plan) allows unlimited Picture Mail.
All pictures sent to others or just 'uploaded' from the phone over the
air also wind up on the pictures.sprintpcs.com website, from which I can
group them into albums, email them to others, enhance them, print them,
or download them to my PC. It's a pretty good system.
One thing that's not built-in is the ability to download the pictures
over a wire from the Sprint PCS phone to a PC. It requires third-party
software and a cable, and some phone models can't do it at all.

that $15+$5...must be over and beyond your Sprint basic rate plan costs -

Yes, it's the cost of the PCS Vision Picture Pack, which is an add-on to
my Fair & Flexible America for Families plan.
