      Hi list,

      I posted this to the NG, but my news server is down, and I couldn't find it
    on google or any other news servers.
      I've got a Polaroid PDC 640 digital camera. It's connected by serial cable
    to the PC. Using digikam and gtkam, I can't get it to communicate with the
    camera for some reason. It has a 2MB memory card, but since it's not a USB
    connection, I don't know what to do.
      I desperately need the pictures on this camera. They contain photos of the
    area where my friend and I were assaulted a few days ago, and I took the
    pictures literally 15 minutes before it started to rain, and now all the
    blood is washed away.
      Please, if anyone has any ideas, I'd sure be thankfull. I feel at the end of
    a rope here. I'm disabled (have been for 3 and a half years), and the officer
    who responded to my 911 call is pulling a 'good ol' boy' cover up (the wife
    of the man who attacked us, is the daughter of the local preacher man...I
    unfortunately live in the bible belt, and am jewish...making this an uphill
    climb from the get go).
      Thanks for any help or ideas, I really do appreciate it. Take care and be
    good.

      John
