The Wonderful World of Cell
Cell phones, that is!
I got a new HTC Touch Pro 2 awhile back and have recently been experimenting with the camera on the phone. The one drawback to the camera is that is has no flash on it. Interesting concept, but thus far, I have not missed it at all. I love natural lighting and I believe sometimes it can be used to cause the casual observer to look more intently, drawing said looker in!
I have been posting my mobile photos in Facebook, as it is so incredibly easy to do. After I take the photo, I merely poke at the screen a couple times with my finger, and voila! My photos appear on Facebook! I can probably do so here on my blog, but I’ve not figured that out….quite yet! I am having a great deal of fun using my phone, though!
Another cool feature of the phone is that when I am talking to someone, I can place the phone face down and it automatically switches to speakerphone, meaning I can use it hands-free. And, (I found this so fascinating!) while it is in this mode, if I pick the phone up and pull the stylus out of the side, up pops “Notes” so I can onveniently write down notes as I am talking. Come on…how cool is that?
Okay, so those of you with Facebook,you have seen these photos and I apologize. For those *not* on Facebook, here are my photos taken with my wonderful cell. Oh, and guess what, I get to use this tiny gadget to upload the photos from my cell’s mini SD card. (I set the key next to the card reader to show just how tiny it is!)
I know this phone will never take the place of my cameras, but it sure is fun playing with it!

The camera phones really DO take amazing pictures!! I totally agree!! Ben mentioned to me that our very first digital camera is the same megapixel size (2) that my current Palm Centro Phone has!
It is very handy as we always have our phones with us!! When I think of all the traveling I used to do without any phone…now we can’t leave home without it!!
Wow. A colleague was thinking of getting an HTC; looks like the photos are one fine feature, as is the speaker mode. I’ll let her know. May I ask are there any other things you like about it?
And, as always, superb photos.
I am amazed at the quality!
Useful in addition to a ‘normal’ camera!
I’m back from holiday and managed to get the phone company to sort out my line as well.
I’ll start posting again soon!
