Cell Phone Question For Experts!

[miaheatlvr]

I would like a cell phone when I travel abroad that can log a PHOTO along with the phone number. I meet so many people when I travel overseas and then I put the name into my old NOKIA cell but then a few days later I have trouble remembering the FACE along with the NAME and NUMBER, sooooo for now on I will log all three! I heard the Motorola V3 does this I think, any other ones? Kind Regards!

Ours does that... the Sprint Sanyo MM-8300.

or a verison camera phone,,,,mostly all new phones (2005-2007),,do that

Everyone I've gotten does that, my latest one Moto RAZR V3i (Razr w/ iTunes) does it
And it has airplane mode, so you can listen to your tunes while on the plane

DOES NOKIA MAKE ONE by any chance? They are so user friendly and would rather stay away from the Motorola's how about that sanyo?

The Sanyo is very user-friendly, in my opinion...

I love my new Samsung A727 phone I just got for AT&T. It allows you to store a ridiculous amount of photos/videos/songs (unlike every Verizon phone I have had in the past), takes great pictures, good access to the internet and your email, allows you to get TV shows/sports highlights on your phone, and is very user-friendly.
And what's even nicer is that if you run out of storage room, the phone allows you to just buy a larger memory chip to slide right into the phone. The memory chip is about $40 and you can get up to a 1 GB of extra memory.

Hi Lion. Just a follow up, so are you telling me that you have a PHOTO phone book as well? Not just when they call you picture caller id?

I am not exactly sure what you are asking.
When I go into my "address book", I can view a picture next to each person's name of every person that I have a picture of in my phone.

Thats exactly what im asking, thank you. howmany numbers/pics does it store by anychance and what is that feature called if you know it so I can see if their are other models of that brand or other brands to look for! Kind Regards

There is not a specific name to the feature.
However, the phone I am referencing holds 1000 contacts (and allows you to put up to 7 numbers into each contact) on its phone memory and an extra 250 on the SIM chip (a feature of AT&T).
I am not exactly sure how many pictures the phone holds, because it is just stored in memory of the phone. However, it gives you 25 MB of space in the phone, while the average picture is about 20-30 KB. I did the quick math and figured, if you just want photos in your phone, you can store about 800-900 photos in the phone. Then, if you do decide to get the extra memory chip, you would have an extra GB of space to do whatever you please (whether that be put even more pictures, songs, videos, etc.)
I just switched two weeks ago from Verizon to AT&T and I could not be any happier. My phone plan is so much cheaper now, and I am able to do so much more with my phone. My old phone only held 60 pictures.
