Nope that should do it, but be aware of your provider's data rate
charges before trying this. On the plan I am on, I could buy the CD 5
times for the GPRS usage costs of downloading a 3 minute MP3 :(

Does your phone have bluetooth? That's what I used to fill my phone with
MP3s. Takes about a minute per song to transfer. On the linux side (to
make this appear more on-topic) use the bluez packages, and gnome-obex-
server, then you can send files directly from nautilus using "send via
bluetooth". Of course you need a bluetooth dongle also.
