I can't speak to Nokia from experience, but I've gotten Samsung and Sanyo phones connected to Mandrake with bitpim (http://bitpim.sourceforge.net/). The bitpim site only indicates one Nokia phone model known to work, but states others may work, though they are untested. You'll need a USB cable made for your phone, and it looks like you can get one here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5755884150&category=20366Hey guys,
I want to connect my Nokia 6800 phone to my computer to put my own images on it (the ones that came with it suck, and the ones I can download are over priced for what they are), and I was wondering if anyone's been able to connect a mobile phone to a computer running Mandrake in order to upload pictures and sounds to it? More specifically, has anyone gotten the Nokia 6800 connected correctly?
I'm tight on money at the moment, and so I'd like to avoid spending money on a data cable that's going to do me no good. I haven't had much, if any luck, with what I saw on Google, and I didn't see anything about connecting mobile phones in the list's Wiki.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Amy

I bought my cable on eBay, and it worked like a charm. The eBay knock-offs are about $50 less than the cable the phone vendors sell.
Good luck!
