  NOT 'mounted'.

  If you think the phone is 'mounted' then do this:

- Start Windows Photo Viewer or IrfanView or any other viewer on the
  Windows system.

- In that viewer open a file which *resides* on the phone. I.e. do NOT
  *copy* the file to the Windows system and then open it, but open it
  *while it resides on the phone*.

  Guess what? You can't do that! Why? Because the phone is NOT
'mounted'.

  IF the phone was mounted you could open the phone file by using a path
such as P:\DCIM\Camera\... or \\Phone\DCIM\Camera\..., but there is no
such path.

  Now that you've been shown what 'mounted' is and isn't, for once in
your life try to *learn* from it, instead of continuously demonstrating
your ignorance/cluelessness/stupidity, while trying to divert from said
ignorance/cluelessness/stupidity by blabbering bollocks like this:
