[lug] cell phones with linux

[Jeffrey Haemer]

Matt,

I don't have any trouble downloading images from bluetooth phones (I've done
it with several), and I think I've also pushed stuff onto it.

I haven't had any luck pulling my phonebook from my Nokia phone.  On their
website, Nokia supplies a utility to do it that ends in ".EXE"

I haven't tried ringtones or themes, since I never mess with those.
