The hardware should allow it, but to my knowledge the iOS software has no such capability. By default, the only way to transfer photos is via iTunes, which comes with a lot of baggage. The Photo Transfer app, as exbited in my story, is a great alternative. But you’re right; would love to see the app updated with Bluetooth support.

Thanks for your prompt replies. If both devices have bluetooth, can the photos in the computer be transferred to iphone over bluetooth, before sending the emails over the phone network? Is it because bluetooth is slower?

I forgot to answer the other part of your post. The “best for the buck” is probably the combination of TTG Pages (allowing you to create the framework of a website) and TTG Highslide Gallery Pro (allowing you to create individual image galleries of various types, including galleries for displaying images, client proofing and selling images online).

Both have Bluetooth, but this particular app only utilizes WiFi to exchange photos.

Thanks for the tips.

I’m just wondering : does your computer and iPhone have bluetooth? If you have bluetooth on both devices, how come that was not used? btw, i like your plug-ins. still deciding what to get, quite a lot of plug-ins which is a little confusing for me. I want the best for the buck
