I had always thought EZWeb phones only supported .bmp or .wbmp
format images. Just curious, when did they also start supporting
the PNG format? Is this just for the newer models?

I suppose one could try installing ImageMagick or NetPBM 
and running it in PHP via system(), if you want to stick with 
the *nix/PHP platform.
