Re: Sunset
I have two cell phones in my desk right now with so many pictures on them that I can't access. I've been working on pulling the memory out so I can work on getting that data back. I never backed them up, and now I'm regretting it. I can't remember the last time I had a picture on paper except for my passport photo. Otherwise, I just share them on the internet as well.
Oh, I have the cables necessary. The problem is one of them was dropped in the water, and the other just stopped working. I think (I've read but not fully investigated) I should be able to take them apart and separate the memory from the controller board and extract the data that way. I back up everything now. All my pictures on those phones are either lost or just waiting to be taken out again.

Funny you should mention dropping your cell phone in water. About an hour ago I dropped my digital camera in my kitty's water dish. Completely submerged. The only good thing I can say about it is that it was a soft landing! I snatched it out as quickly as I could, and put it in a towel. Took out the battery and memory card. Put everything in the oven. Now, the oven was not turned on mind you, only the oven light. I'm surprised how much warmth the oven light puts out. Camera seems to work ok now.
I once dropped my cell phone in a cup of coffee. (yes, I'm good at that kind of thing) It actually worked better after that.
