    cell phone cameras only became widely available in 2002 with the iPhone

to be fair, cell phone cameras probably came into play in 02, but the iPhone and other half decent phone cameras didn't hit until 2007.

The 2000 Sharp J-Phone could do it in Japan but they could only be downloaded to a computer or sent to another J-Phone.

ummm... I realized after the fact that my comment could have been read like I was trolling... I assure you i wasn't.

This post... and these photos are remarkable. I am in awe of the technology humans have developed, and even more in awe of people like you who use the technology for the good of mankind.... so keep kicking ass francopoli!
