You're right that the specs page is a bit light on detail.  This phone
has only 34 MB of internal memory, a high res camera and an MP3
player, which means it must come with some sort of memory card,
otherwise it'd be next to useless.

If it comes with a memory card, then just get a USB memory card reader
for your PC.  They cost about a tenner and the "USB mass storage"
standard means that they work fine with Linux and everything else.
The kernel module is called 'usb-storage'.

Then you (or your son) can transfer data using the memory card.  USB
cable may work also, but a memory card is far more likely to work with
Linux.
