I have recently acquired a Canon digital camera that uses a Compact Flash card for its storage. It also includes a USB cable.
I also have Kyocera 7135 Smartphone. It's a phone and a Palm, with wireless internet capabilities. It has the usual IR port, a Secure Digital slot, and it can be hotsync'd/iSync'd with a Mac or PC with a special USB cable.
In a month or so I'm going on a trip where I'll be far from a computer, and I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out a way I can get some photos from the camera into the phone so that I could then email them to people.
I can't imagine a way to use the USB interfaces; the cables both end in USB "A" connectors, and cannot be connected to one another. Besides, there's no software on the 7135 that could retrieve the pictures from the camera.
So now I wonder: is there any kind of adapter/bridge/whatever that would allow the CF card to be connected to the 7135's SD slot?
Or the reverse - to allow the Canon camera to write pictures directly to an SD card via some kind of adapter. Then the SD card could be moved back to the 7135 for reading?
I'm suspecting there's no good way to do this, but if anyone has an idea, I'd be happy to hear it.
