On my nokia 6600 you can email pictures too... Or bluetooth it to the computer.

The best way is to set up a mulitmedia message, attach the picture and put in an email address in the To: bit.

Otherwise you'll have to buy a IR port or Bluetooth (if ya got it)port

easiest way would be to get the connecting cable, infrared adaptors are available, bit hit and miss though, costs are about £25

i connect it thru USB, with a data cable. my bro uses a bluetooth 'dongle', that is much the same, plugs into USB port. Infra red is mainly used with laptops, as most of these have them built in. Best bet is via usb, dont pay more than £25 whatever you get. Dongles can be bought cheaper on tinternet, my bro says. dixons maybe?

the sortware is online somewhere. thats £12 i think. read the blurb about it though cos i didnt! just make sure its suitable for transfering pictures.

a google for 'sony t610 data cable' throw up loads of results, add dixon or wherever to narrow it down. It can be a bit of an arse ordering off some funny sites...

actually, dixons is crap...

you best bet is a bluetooth dongle from ebay.

they are about £10 or so. but when you upgrade your phone, you will be able to use the same dongle (as long as your new phone has bluetooth).

HTH,
