hey sprint pcs, clean out your photo albums!

although i've resisted, i had to go get a sprint pcs account/camera/video phone for a project we're working on. i got one of these toshiba VM 4050 which is a really great handset, but we'll leave that for another time.

anyway, on first use of the camera or camcorder to upload media to your online album, you have to setup a password. when i tried, it kept prompting me for a password. i couldn't set one up and soon figured out a password was already assigned, probably the last 4 digits of my ss# or something.

so i go online to pictures.sprintpcs.com, enter my new sprint pcs number, and go through the "forgot my password" pages, so that my password gets messaged to my phone. 2 seconds later, i get "Dear Member, Your Picture Mail Password is: POOP". hmm, i think, that's an odd default password.

so i log in via my browser and lo and behold, an album with someone else's pictures! including porn! Sprint, you might want to go talk to lightsurf who manages your online album about this one!
