Does your computer have Bluetooth capability? If it doesn't you can go to a computer store and get a Bluetooth "dongle" so you can use it with your computer. You can transfer files via Bluetooth by making your phone "discoverable" (go to your phone's Bluetooth menu (on Nokia it's generally under settings/connectivity/Bluetooth/Bluetooth settings/My phone's visibility/Shown to all) and in your computer find the file that you wish to upload to your phone and use whichever program you have for sending files to your phone. > We got our phones via Costco which offered rebates that made the > phones free & refunded the activation charges.

Thanks for > uploading the ringtones & information. I found this in google: http://tamspalm.tamoggemon.com/2006/07/15/13-hints-for-using-a-camera- phone/ http://malektips.com/camera_phone_help_and_tips.html The truth is about camera phones that they're good for spur of the moment capturing something. Considering that you can get a 3 MP camera for well under $100 now using a camera phone for any "serious" picture taking is probably not the way to go. - - T-Mobile-US on Google Groups: http://groups.google.com/group/T-Mobile-US _ _ Yahoo!
