Nice, but what about mms messaging? I was convinced I would never need it, but ever since I got an iPhone, people just assume I can see them. I constantly get the "you have received an mms message..." text, then I have to send another text back saying I can't receive them, then I get one back saying something like "an iPhone, if anything, should be awesome at mms! WTF????"
I really don't get the logic behind not including it.
There's no logic, dude. Apple just hasn't done everything it could with the iPhone. No video, no copy and paste, no To Do list... hmm. But as usual they really nailed "sexy." It's a very cool phone. It just lacks features.
This is a long long time coming. Personally I never had use for it, but a lot of people do. Therefore Apple need to add the damn thing. Steve, remove thou head from ass and add MMS.
Few people will care about MMS moving forward. It's a horrible legacy product tied to a checkboard and strange and inconsistent fees and extra charges. If would be easier to e-mail someone a movie attachment via Email than over MMS. Saves you from getting choked to death when they find out that you gave them a charge of $10 for 20 seconds of bad video.
I am with you on that, Cleverboy. I would add SMS to that. Both are such arcane/old-world ways to communicate. The only reason they have survived is that data access has hitherto been so stingily doled out by the service providers, and people had 2 lk fr mre effnt wys 2 commncte.
With the increased availability of fairly-priced data (and the increasing prevalence of push email), it is a generational thing that will be gone soon.
