A method and system for remotely storing data on a server (16) through a wireless connection (18) instead of storing data locally in a consumer device, as well as devices for use with the method and system. More particularly, a video camera, still camera, laptop computer, or other consumer device which normally stores data in local memory such as film, disk, random access memory, memory sticks, or other forms of storage would transmit the data to a remote server (16) through a wireless connection (18). The data would be saved on the remote server (16) for subsequent retrieval through, for example, a wireless connection (30) to the Internet (22) and on to the server (16), or a wireless connection (28) to the server (16). In addition, data not originating from the user device (10) could be downloaded to the user device (10). The data to be retrieved can be specified by the user, or sent to the user according to a user profile stored on the server (16).
