ok...
so if i want to transfer images from my mac (OS 10.1.5) to my phone (t68i) what do i need..?

I ditched my t68... it's shite! got a spv smartphone instead and although i have to put it in a docking station, at least it's simple.

yes a little usb thingy will work for that.

what about software, drivers and the like..?

jaguar handles all that - after me:
"you only need the usb adapter"
"you only need the usb adapter"
"you only need the usb adapter"seriously though, you only need the usb adapter

but i don't have jaguar...
:(i only have 10.1.5...

ah, problem - you do need jaguar
you must know someone with an update?

apple?

correct answer! - i got an upgrade for £14 or something silly - cant complain.
well, of course I can but...

so there's no way using 10.1.5...
seems a bit over the top to have to get a new OS just to put a few images on a bloody phone..!
ho hum...
thanks for all your help anyway...

upgrade from apple..?
for £14..?
tell me more...
- unknown0
jaguar is worth the upgrade for other reasons aswell.. or wait for panther.
personally I'm waiting for Grainger

ya - they had some thing where if you'd bought a mac after jul 02 and you didn't have jaguar you could upgrade for £14

I've got a T610 phone and a 17" G4 laptop and was connecting them last night with Bluetooth. I need to put my ISP details (when I find one) in, and I should be sorted. I'm testing it out to see how expensive surfing this way will be (in moderation) because I no longer have a land line at home.
any thoughts?
