 Kodak Mobile Link : Exclaim, a provider of innovative wireless and Web digital imaging applications has partnered with the Kodak Gallery to make uploading, downloading and sharing of photo and video, captured on mobile camera-phones, easy and instantaneous. Kodak Mobile Link is available beginning today on leading CDMA BREW Wireless carriers in the United States. The program eliminates the need to attach photos to MMS messages for uploading. Instead, camera phone users simply press a button and their photos are automatically connected to Kodak Gallery, the world's number one photo service, where they can be easily shared, printed and stored. Users can also view all of their Kodak Gallery albums within the application.
