If you have internet on your phone, the easiest way is to email the pictures to your regular email address.
And then save them on to your computer from there.

To get images etc. from your phone to the PC, you'll need an IR port on your PC.
Via cable its impossible (I think).
So buy a IR port...

No, you can't do it with a cable..
You'll have to buy an IR or BT device.

That depends on your configuration. If you have WinXP, just as I do, then I can be of help. And here's a recommendation of a very good, and cheap IrDA adapter: MA-600. It's COM-port, so the whole thing's even cheaper. U can get info from http://www.matweb-01.com/English/ IF you buy that. Plus, if you have WinXP... Long story. Confirm that you have or that you have no XP...

GREAT! Win2k is VERY similar to XP both in features and interface. No matter what adapter ya'll get, follow these steps:
1. Try to know your adapter's model no. and go to its website, then download its driver.
2. Save the driver to yor hard disk
3. Go to Control Panel, select Add/Remove Hardware. The Add/Remove Hardware Wizard will appear. Click Next
4. Select Add/Troubleshoot a device, click Next
5. After the hardware detection process, select Add a new device, click Next
6. Select No, I want to select the hardware from a list, click Next
7. Select Infrared devices for the type of hardware you want to install, click Next
8. When the Select Infrared Device appear, click Have Disk
9. Choose the [adpater model no.].inf in the directory created at above
10. Continue to choose "blablabla Serial Infrared Device" and click Next
11. Select the proper physical connection (COM1 or COM2) and click Next. This port selection must correspond to the actual IrDA adapter physical connection
The next couple of steps will verify if you've done everything OK:
+1. Go to Control Panel, click System
+2. Select the Device Manager under Hardware page to check if Infrared devices is present and click it to check if "blablabla Serial Infrared Device" is present
+3. Double click the Mobile Action "blablabla Serial Infrared Device", when XYZ Serial Infrared Device Properties appear, select IrDA Settings page and set the Maximum Connection Rate to be xxxx (you'll have to experiment this), click OK
If everything goes well, you have a Phone-PC connection without any of the friggin sync softwares!!

Now, all you have to do is to make sure that your IrDA adapter is connected to yor PC, and that the green diode on it lights up. Then turn on yor phone's IR port, put it in range of the adapter and wait till you get a new icon appearing on taskbar, which says that a T300 is nearby (T300's firmware is nearly (90%) identical to the one of T310, and thus, the T316 too), and is ready for transmission. Click on the taskbar icon, and you'll have a nice browse window, from where you can comfortably choose which file you want to send on your phone.
