I agree with you, Kalle. In contrast image correction (just like the
Picasa "I'm Feeling Luck", red-eye removal, etc.), I think there isn't
enough functionality to image manipulation in a handheld.

Yesterday, I spent some time looking for a open application with such
features. I didn't found any. But, with ImageMagick, I can do
something nice...


Regards,
Leonardo
