My Verizon contract is up. I am thinking of getting a new phone. Can I
get one that I can download pictures to my PC ?

Most of new cell phones have that ability. You will either need a connector,
a SD card, or SD Card Reader, or you can upload to http://www.vzwpix.com 
via your cell phone after you take the photo.

There are also other methods but this will give you a start.

That would do it. If the phone has a SD card, I can just put the card
into my SD reader.

Yes, but you must have UNMOLESTED firmware the carrier-of-your-choice has
NOT tampered with in his attempt to FORCE you to download those pictures
from the phone THROUGH HIS MONEY MACHINE.  Comparing identical E815
Motorola cameraphones, we find menu selections that copy pictures and
music from the internal memory to the microSD card conspicuously missing
from certain carriers' phones while other have them, unmolested.

For instance, here is a list of Picture Menu selections on my Alltel E815
phone bought a couple of months ago:
Send in Message
Send to online album
Switch Storage Device
Apply As
New
Details
Change Details
Rename
Delete
Move
Copy
Mark
Mark All
Categories
Assign to Category
View Free Space

In the Sounds Menu, the selections are:
Switch Storage Device
New
Details
Rename
Delete
Move
Copy
Mark
Mark All
Categories
Assign to Category
Sounds Setup
View Free Space

When SWITCH STORAGE DEVICE is switched to Phone Memory:
Apply As Ringtone
is added to the Sounds Menu.  To make ANY MP3 or Wav file into a
ringtone, you simply copy or move it from the microSD card to internal
memory and click Apply As Ringtone.  You then can pick which ringtone
this file is to be played with...main, one of the other alarms, or an
individual caller on your phonebook list.  (I have the theme song from
Dragnet assigned to one of my friends who is a Police Detective...(c;)  
He is not allowed to make Dragnet one of his ringtones on his carrier,
which is not Alltel.

How stupit dat be?

When one has "captured" a picture and clicks STORE, the selections are:
Send in Message
Send to online album
Store Only
Apply as Wallpaper
Apply as Screen Saver

I save all pictures to the 1GB microSD, the largest card E815 supports.

Some of these are missing from other carrier's Motophones, too.

Check yours.  Are there any missing from my phone??

No firmware hacking has been done to this Alltel phone.....

My politicians lied to me and said they support Net Neutrality.
They must pay at the voting machine.....well, once we figure
out how to stop Diebold from changing my votes.

Yes, most all will.  If you want to connect the phone directly to the
PC by USB cable you'll need the proper software and you will probably
need to modify the phone slightly.

This is a good place to start for information:
