The Palm OS allows only a few file types to be stored in RAM and JPEG isn't
one of them.

You'll have to try something like PalmRAMDisk. Or I believe McFile might
allow you to beam something straight to a memory card.

Hope this helps,

I recommend McFile. Note that you must have McFile open while receiving the
files to get it to work. Also, you can ONLY save files to the memory card.
