My goal is to develop (or find) a control to be used from Pocket IE
that will be able to capture an image from the built-in camera, and
upload said image to the web.

The target device will most likely be an XDA O2, however I'd like to
keep my options open.

I've thought about alternatives such as the user operating the camera,
then using the browser to type in the name of the resulting file and
upload it, however the key is to make it as "brainless" as possible, as
the user will be otherwise driving the application entirely from Pocket
IE.

Thanks for any assistance.
 
Your requirements will require creating a separate from PIE client
application.
 
you could probably create an ActiveX control to take the picture and upload
the file.
assuming XDA 02 provides a camera lib you can use?
the control would have to do the uploading, because i dont think PIE can.
and PIE only supports C++ ActiveX controls, eVB or CF cant help you.

if you want CF, then Alex had your answer.

That's what I was afraid of.

Thanks to both of you for your help.
