Does anyone know if its possible to connect the Touch Pro to a Digital Camera using some kind of special USB cable to upload pictures or if there is a USB SD Card reader that supports Windows Mobile?

Try connecting the TP to a PC and then copy the pictures from the TP to the camera via PC

Well you could get an Eyefi sd card and link it to the TP via WiFi.

The idea is that I could take awesome photos with my real camera and maybe post them to facebook or something from my phone while I'm out and about. Picture quality on the TP isn't horrible but it still doesn't compare to a dedicated camera.

That actually sounds like the most promising idea other than having to buy a new SD card. Thanks!

what about that USB host software that can be installed on the TP...sounds like that could work.

if the tp had software that gave it usb hosting it might be able to read other devices. i say that because my old samgung mp3 player could read any device via usb when i was trying to figure out how i found it had something to do with usb hosting!!!

Get a micro SDHC card or just use the stock 1gb inside the SD adapter in the camera If your camera takes regular SD cards. If Your camera Takes Compact flash there is also an adapter that will convert Compact Flash slot to SD slot and supposedly supports SDHC, SD and Micro SDHC are all still way cheaper per GB then Compact Flash. Once the pic is on the micro sd card its just a matter of putting it in the slot in your tp and sending it.
