Colin's phone stuff archive


I'm a fan of mobile phones. My first one was an LG VX6000 on Verizon. My most current phone is an LG VX8300. Below are some neat pictures and videos I've accumulated through the years that you might enjoy for yourself.

Notes and FAQs

How do I get these onto my phone?

Send them via email to your phone. It works at least for Verizon. If you don't know the address you need to send it to, send a picture or text message from your phone to your email address (yes, they can do it) and then reply, but attach the picture or video. For Verizon Wireless phones, send it to <your phone number>@vzwpix.com.

If enough people clamor, I'll write a little utility that will automatically send the pics or videos to your phone.
