Despite advanced knowledge that this liitle lobby thing was a cheapo bottom of the range handset re-badged by Virgin from the Korean Factor Bellwave... (Not now offered by them as it has been supaceded by a phone that actually works like it should). I decided that for 2 features I would take the plunge and go for one. The 64 mb memory (not large I know) would hold a few mp3 files that should play back ok on the included stereo headset and the camera was certainly a better spec than the one I was using....
Now this feature IS THE MOST IMPORTANT to me as in my job I take quick piccies of damage to goods or premises which I can either send off instantly to HQ or not ...but upload to my computer that evening.
In the handbook there are clear details of how to connect your 575 to a PC using a USB cable.
Have you ever seen rocking horse s***, if you have you might have also seen a Lobster 575 data cable.
The good folk at virgin suggested I might find one on e-bay if I looked hard enough but after some moaning on my part they gave me the names of 3 web based suppliers. Now these 3 different suppliers, I believe, all happen to be the same organisation, this info gleaned from their all too similar websites, and none of them carry the elusive item. However info from one of them said "we used to have it, BUT IT DIDN'T (DIDN@T) WORK".
If anyone out there manages to solve this little issue one way or another please let me know.
