This could be a certain 3rd-party manipulation of MobileMe or maybe an application. Other than that, I don’t think there is a (non-jailbreak) way of getting into the OS and assorted guts of the device and sending automatic pictures. Of course, you asked about the iPhone, and I don’t see anywhere in that link where the woman had an iPhone. (I was going to keep talking about this, but then i realized iPhone was the first word of the title.) O-O
