Canon Powershot Question

Just bought the Powershot S1 IS and so far I really like this camera. But I
have a question, When you attach a sound file to a picture, is there anyway
to send it to someone so they can hear it? Or is it just played when it is
in the camera? Thanks.

If you use a (CF) memory card reader to download your pictures you
should be able to spot the sound files real quick as they have a
different file extension.

So, you can get the sound files off the memory card, it's just Canon
who doesn't make it easy for us...

The sound file has the same name as the picture (the extension is
different).
An easy way of sending the picture is with Outlook Express - Insert |
Picture (.jpg file) then Format | Background | Sound (.wav file)
