Another way to get them into your MessagePad is to use Newt'sCape and
SimpleMail.

If you can use the Newton to check your email, you should be able to send
most reasonably sized (< 250k ) GIF and JPG images. You can open them on the
Newton with the appropriate plug-ins for SimpleMail and Newt'sCape.
