Hi Chris
I don't have mini usb cable for my Nokia 2630 phone. I can browse my
phone's folders from my dell netbook using bluetooth. Now I think I'm
using obexftp bluetooth. I found a link which might or might not work for
you. I tried this on my Mandriva 2009.1 but didn't have any joy. I will
need to try this on my netbook which is configured correctly.
Do you know whether pictures can be posted to this forum?
Here's the link I found:
