The problem, I think, with any web client is whether the point of use (a caf� for example) will let him put files on the system and then whether they'll let him take them off the system to upload.
However if they WILL let him then you might check out services like shutterfly.com or Kodak.com - they're nominally for getting prints of the pictures (perhaps something he might like actually) but can also be used to order CDs of the images or just store them (although each service may charge a small fee for storage). There are other services out there that will do this as well.
