Pics from Clie to desktop

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops (More info?)

Is it possible to export pictures taken on my TJ27 to my desktop computer
WITHOUT a memory stick?

I haven't seen a way to do it yet, and it seems like a cheap way to force you to
buy a memory stick.....

No bluetooth on the Clie TJ27, and I don't have anything that can receive IR, as
far as I can tell.

I asked on www.cliesource.com and was directed to a little app called
ClieConverter, which you can download free from here:
http://www.freewarepalm.com/utilit [...] rter.shtml

It only works on a Windows machine, but it does work! You find the pics in the
backup folder after you sync, then drag/drop them into the ClieConverter window,
and it outputs .jpg files into the same directory.

It's a bit of a pain for me, since I'm on a Mac at work, but at least I have a
PC at home which I can use it on. I can't imagine it'd be that hard to write the
conversion program for OSX/Linux/whatever, if you know what you're doing.
Unfortunately I wouldn't know where to start!

I will get a MS when I see a good deal on one, but I'm still absorbing the
initial outlay of the Clie and MissingSync software.
