Default Storage of photos whilst travelling?

very few net cafes are willing to let you load you camera's software onto

Newer cameras tend to support a mode where they can appear like a generic
file storage device on USB, so they don't need drivers. And newer operating
systems (XP, OSX, Linux) tend to have drivers for larger numbers of cameras.
These days it's not nearly as much of a problem as it used to be.

In America and Australia, probably in Japan, and Indonesia you can take
your memory card to a Drugstore or photo store and burn a CD of your
photos.


Yes, there are lots of places to do this, especially in Asia where they are
on every corner.
