Phone camera

Finally got my phone's picture-mailing feature to work, as seen with this depiction of my housemate. (Some of you may have met him; he's about two feet tall and hangs out near my TV.)

Yeah, well... I got the cheapest one they had (a Sony Ericsson T610, if you must know), and this is about what I expected. For a camera somehow hacked into a phone that's the same size and shape as my previous one, and obviously lacking a flash (this photo was taken with "night mode" turned on, and I'm very curious about what that actually does), it ain't bad. I'm sure I'll have some fun with this. Looking forward to setting up auto-blogging scripts this weekend...!

I saw one of those picture phones the last time I was at Office Max. Aren't they the kind that are really only useful if you know someone else with a picture phone? DO you know anyone else with a picture phone?

I know only one other person with a picture phone, but I don't intend to use phone-to-phone picture sending much, if at all. Instead, I hope to be able to snap pictures, send them to a certain jmac.org email address (it's easy to do this from the phone), and then have a Perl script take those photos and post them to my weblog as they arrive.
