Hi all, I've had a trawl through but can't seem to find answers to these questions. A work colleague got a 6600 (I'm thinking of getting 1 now!), after 20 mins or so of fiddling about he sent me a picture to my e-mail address but it was tiny. About the 1/9 of the size of the Nokia 7260 (not 100% sure of the model). Had he not selected the correct size? I've seen pictures on this forum that we massive in size bytes and image. He contacted O2 & Nokia who said that this was the 'standard' size. The phone was then returned - he's VERY impatient!!! Eventually my question is had he not selected the right setting for the size of pics or been given duff info. I'd mainly like the phone for the MP3 player, games and other apps but a camera that took decent sized images would be a bonus. Also how do I transfer files to & from the phone, do you get supplied with any cables? Or do you have to but some sorta infra red thing?

In the "Messaging" app:[list=1]
[*]Options -> Settings -> Multimedia message -> Image size
[*]The choices are Large & Small.
[*]Choose Large.[/list=1]

To send messages to/from a PC, you can:

  • Use infrared (IrDA).
  • Use Bluetooth.
  • Use a PC-based MMC card reader.
  • Send it as email.
  • Send it as MMS (at least from the phone to an email address provider your operator/carrier/service provider supports it, or that the MMS Center software they use supports it).
