Whatever happened to taking pictures with a compact digital camera, off-loading them onto a laptop "sometime later", and then attaching them (with a downsized pixel count for fast transmission) to an email that can be sent over a slow Internet connection?
We do this all the time when traveling. Sometimes we even make the pictures prettier or a different size using Photoshop on our laptop before we email them from our RV over the Verizon 3G network. We have a cellular antenna on the RV roof and a battery powered cellular amplifier inside the RV so we can connect to Verizon 3G towers even places where our cell phones normally show only one or no bars ... like places in Yellowstone, or Western Utah, or the Oregon Outback.
(Boy, are we getting lazy in the U.S. ... or is it new-gadget-happy?)
Same thing that happened to loading a roll of 35mm film into the camera, taking it to drug store to be developed and waiting a few days to get your prints back.
