Using a mobile phone to access the internet.

My mobile phone is just that - no camera and PAYG, but, realising that a decade ago I probably wouldn't have even had that, and also realising that there are phones capable of internet access, I'm curious to learn how effective this is?

I can accept that a simple device could display text-only emails, but if I include a web address that relates to a jpeg image, what can the recipient see?

Another question, does the recipient pay for connection time (like a conventional voice call?) or does the download get reckoned according to the size of the image?

I ask this because I sometimes send 'high resolution' camera photographs as attachments, and don't want to inconvenience anyone who chooses to use their 'i-phone' (or Android) to read my message.
