Inserting anything other than a USB cable into the phone seems to be a no-go. There is one slightly wider and thinner recess, but no metal is in it. It looks like a slightly less dumb model would use the same outer case and a somewhat different inner case.
From lsusb:
Bus 002 Device 007: ID 04e8:6640 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd Usb Modem Enumerator
[root@localhost ~]# file /dev/bus/usb/002/007 /dev/bus/usb/002/007: character special
I found my Service Guide. My phone is a Samsung Gusto 2. A link near http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/gusto-2/#Camera,%20Photos%20&%20V... tells me that Samsung Gusto SCH-u360's, among others, do not support picture transfer.
Anyone know better?
Anyone know for sure whether bitpim would work if I could make it go?

How do I download pictures from a dumb phone?
I have a Samsung phone I bought at a Walmart. According the the front, it worships Verizon. Beyond that, I'm not at all sure what kind.
As I should have mentioned earlier: If there is a way to install software on this phone, I do not know it.
If I use a real USB connector to connect it to my PC, CentOS sees it as a character special device. What, if anything, I can do with that device, I do not know. I've not found any settings related to USB.
In case it helps, from menu->settings->phone info: S/W V. U365.GG01 H/W V. U365.04
