This site is dedicated to pictures taken with my SPC-5300 Dual Band Tri-Mode cellular phone manufactured by Sanyo.  It is America's first wireless phone with a built-in digital camera and was unveiled in December 2002 by Sprint and Sanyo. The SPC-5300 combines the functionality of a digital camera with the clear calls of a PCS Phone enabling Sprint customers to instantly shoot, view and share photos with anyone...immediately. With the SPC-5300, you can download Java-based games, animated ringers and screen savers. The SPC-5300 offers a VGA digital camera with digital zoom, portrait flash and fully enabled wireless voice and data communications capabilities. The 2.1-inch internal color screen supports 65,536 colors and provides a vibrant, multi-dimensional experience when viewing photos, screen savers, animated ringers and games. The external Caller ID screen offers the convenience of quickly identifying an incoming call through the number, one of six color selections or Photo-Caller ID. PCS Vision from Sprint is available and allows you to browse the Internet wirelessly with speeds comparable to a home computer's dial-up connection, You can also check and send personal and corporate e-mail and take and receive pictures from select PCS Vision enabled phones.
