Uploading digital photos

[Ben Duncan]

Yeah, the Sony Clie I have works like a champ. The MediStick is recognized
when I press the MSimport. I even plugged one of those dual-media USB

in on this boxen and it worked as well. Tried that at home on my son's 
Win2000PRO
game console, and the sucker just grunted ... did not even recgonize 
anything.
