Abstract
Based on image list information received from an image storage device (image device), an image display device (portable terminal) counts the number of images held by the image storage device, determines the type of data to be received, and requests from the image display device the data for the determined type. When the file names of multiple image files are received from the image storage device, the image display device displays these file names, and requests, from the image storage device, the images for file names selected by a user. The image display device thereafter transmits, to a public network, images that are received from the image storage device in response to the request.
