1. A method of processing a digital image using a portable digital image capturing device, the method comprising:
- detecting a user selection of a first function to communicate a first digital image over a wireless network to a first destination;
determining a first end use process reference in response to the user selecting the first function, wherein the first end use process reference includes a predetermined end use output format of the first destination;
detecting a selection of the first digital image at the portable digital image capturing device;
determining an image format size of the first end use process reference to display the processed image using a predetermined image format size of the first destination;
initiating a processing of the first digital image using the first end use process reference to form a first processed digital image at the portable digital image capturing device; and
in response to identifying the user, initiating a first communication of the processed digital image over the wireless network communicatively coupled to the first destination using the first function such that the first destination may display the processed digital image using the predetermined end use output format.

Abstract
A wireless communication device operable as a digital image capturing device (wireless digital camera) may be used to associate processing information with a captured image. The wireless communication device may communicate information to a network server, such as a WAP server and/or a process server for processing. A process associated with the communicated information is identified and initiated to process the information.

14. A portable digital image capturing device operable to record a first digital image, comprising:
-
an image input sensor operable to record the first digital image; a memory operable to store the first digital image; a processor coupled to the memory, the processor operable to; detect a user selection of a first function to communicate the first digital image over a wireless network to a first destination operable to display digital images; determine a first end use process reference in response to the user selecting the first function, wherein the first end use process reference includes a predetermined end use output format of the first destination; detect a selection of the first digital image at the portable digital image capturing device; determine an image format size of the first end use process reference to display the processed image using a predetermined image format size of the first destination; initiate a processing of the first digital image using the first end use process reference to form a first processed digital image at the portable digital image capturing device; and in response to identifying the user, initiate a first communication of the processed digital image over a wireless network communicatively coupled to the first destination using the first function such that the first destination may display the processed digital image using the predetermined end use output format. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
