Send them as an MMS to your email address?

No, It is just a normal MOTOROLA V22O. No bluetooth or anything.

the way I'd do it and indeed do, is to just attach them into a picture message and then send it to your email address

try it! that's the only way you'll find out, bare in mind though, when you get the pics onto your pc, the quality won't be that good.

It's an MMS capable phone. just follow the instructions on page 23 of the manual. Only real problem I've seen with MMS to an email is AOL tend to filter MMS messages as spam so don't send it to an AOL adddress. We're assuming your account is setup for MMS here of course. Try it and if it doesn't work, call customer services and they can fix it for you.

You can also buy a USB cable and a copy of motorola mobile phone tools to upload them to your computer directly but this will be expensive for a few photos (about 30 quid or so) MMS will cost you no more than 50p per photo (depending on size and if you are payg or paym)

get a data cable

from here
http://direct.motorola.com/ENG/Web_a...ndaryOption=16

might be cheaper on ebay, or a carboot sale

it'll save you money in the long run.


most camera phones come with them nowadays
although i've only had experience with samsung phones

Might have been picked up as spam ,check your spam folders if you have one. Also, bear in mind what I said about AOL earlier.
