You can generate plots on multiple jpeg files. See ?jpeg for the format of 
the `file' argument; this happens by default.

However, this is not `saving multiple plots' and that is more difficult.
Remember a lattice plot object is plotted by printing, so you can save the 
object and then open a new device and print it again.
