Deal to allow professional prints of photos from Sprint phones

Sprint PCS Vision customers soon will be able to have their cameraphone photos printed professionally through a partnership announced Tuesday between Sprint Corp. and Fuji Photo Film U.S.A., writes to David Hayes in KansasCity.com.

"The service will allow Sprint customers to send their photos to the Picture Mail Web site, edit them and forward them to a Fujifilm retailer for printing. Customers will be able to select a local retailer where they can pick up the prints in as little as four hours."

Sprint would be the first wireless company to offer the service for cameraphone users.

Sprint customers used cameraphones to send more than 66 million photos in 2003. With cameras included in most new wireless phones on the market, that number is expected to increase in 2004.
