Emailing photos with T-Mobile Just Works
Posted 25 February 2008, 08:00. (Filed under: Geek by Andrew)
I’m always impressed when things Just Work TM. I took a photo of my lunch with my phone camera and realised that I had neither a bluetooth dongle nor my phone usb cable to hand. On a whim, I pressed the send button and filled in my email address. A few minutes later, what do you know? There’s the photo sitting in my inbox!
I’ve never had a phone/carrier combination that has provided me with zero-configuration email before. It’s quite impressive. On the downside, the photo quality is dire, and the phone decided to send the photo in .bmp format! Why oh why? That means I paid for nearly a megabyte of data to get that measly photo! The version I’ve put on the website is less than 4% of that size, which is still overkill.
So, one step forwards, two steps back.
