Sending / receiving images should be easy, as should be receiving videos.

Sending video is less easy - on (some) Android phones, the video is transcoded to a sane size using system services before being sent, and we'd need to be able to replicate that. Perhaps split into a follow-up.

vCards are probably going to be limited by current lack of buddy support in the plugin; I don't want to get into evolution integration either.

Arbitrary files will hopefully be as easy as images.
