Once again, please read the prior posts.

For the third time

Won't work when the laptop doesn't have a wi/fi connection.

Nevermind, I finally found a solution.

Posted this on a developer site also, THRCA modified Discover so it can access the camera roll but you have to do it through his GUI that you use....it's a stand alone .exe. He also added automatic conversion for HD .avi files that the digital camera takes so when they are copied over, they get converted to .mp4 for iPhone use and faster uploads to YouTube, TwitVid, etc.

You have to have iTunes installed, but it does not need to be running or set to sync anything. Start Discover, open his program, drag and drop like in explorer. No wi-fi router needed, works like ad-hoc. Quick and easy.

Should be available through Cyndia soon he said.

this.

Go to that site using Safari on your iPhone...hold down on the picture and a screen will pop up asking you if you want to SAVE IMAGE or COPY

EDIT: I suck at fully reading threads before posting...i now see that the OP has an image on his COMPUTER that he/she wants to transfer...and NOT already on the net.

LOL dude....try it.

You can't copy pictures TO the phone. Only FROM the phone. Isn't that already stated in this thread?

Using itunes for syncing is a very smart way and I think there will be a lot of people to agree with me. But if you would like to move to a new process then of course you have some other ways available dear. Search in google for your desired one.

Just thought that using that crappy software was a bit overkill to sync a couple pictures. iTunes is not the best when it comes to plugging your phone into multiple computers. Add the fact that the phone won't sync via bluetooth.

A windows mobile phone is far easier to do simple tasks like copy a picture to the phone. I like the iPhone for the most part, but there isn't a sane person that can honestly say that it's very flexible for users that are beyond the basics. I mean come on, gotta Jail Break in order to add a text message sound? You can copy a .jpg OFF the phone to the PC but you can't copy one TO the phone? How lame is that?
