[citation][nom]otacon72[/nom]AT&T's network is going to come a screeching halt tomorrow. Dozens of articles are reporting their network is far overloaded without MMS. I'm getting the popcorn...this is going to be good. Hello? Hello?... lmao[/citation]

[citation][nom]pakardbell486dx2[/nom]I am very sure they will make this into an excuse to charge a lot more on MMS or offer it as an extra data plan on top of your current data plan[/citation]
[citation][nom]abbadon_34[/nom]My god I can't believe they still don't MMS.[/citation]
[citation][nom]manos[/nom]No, MMS doesnt count as text msg on the cell. Sorry for bringing you the bad news. An MMS has NOTHING at all actually to do with text msg or you would stick with that. And its odd. We have been using MMS in Greece for more than 5 years now I think... The services when it comes to Greece though are very expensive to even just talk on a cell neither there are free days or free nights to call here. Yup, I know it sucks[/citation]
WOW! ... .. Just wow. Just when I think I've already seen or heard the dumbest things. Wow.
You people should just stop posting the same shit over and over and over. None of you have added anything of value to this topic at all. Just the same old shit that either you or someone you just copied has already posted a hundred times before in other posts.
For most of you dumbasses out there, at&t has supported and made available MMS for over 6 years at least. It was never taken away from their customers, nor has it been suspended temporarily. It has always been there.
For some other dumbasses who apparently can't just go to at&t's website and read for themselves that any type of message (ie picture MMS, video MMS, text MMS, plain text) is covered in their messaging plans. A message is a message and counts as a message. If you have the unlimited plan, then send and receive all of the messages you want. If you have the 200 message plan, then send any combination of the messages you want just keep the total sent and received under 200! Is this clear enough??!!
And for the vast majority of the dumbasses that post on these topics, you seem to be incapable of grasping the numbers that we are talking about here. First off, the iPhone is an APPLE product that is marketed with at&t's network. Apple made the iPhone and didn't have the software working to where they felt like they could get MMS functioning in a manner that they felt would complement their brand. Why this task was so difficult I have no idea, but Apple has its reasons, which has nothing to do directly with at&t. Apple made the decision to leave that feature out and market the phone anyways. Fast-forward to a few months ago and 10 MILLION+ (that's 10,000,000+, maybe even closer to 20,000,000) iPhone users later and Apple says, "Hey guess what??!! We just added support for this MMS thing!!! It's going to be awesome!! Everyone one of you millions of iPhone uses start using it right now!!"
I know i suck at painting pictures so I'll just out right say it. If you were at&t, would you just say, "Sure all you millions of people, who weren't able to do this obviously more network intensive thing before, just start messaging away to your heart’s content." OR, would you do the sensible thing and delay this for a short while to make sure the experience will be one that is remembered as a success, maybe an unmemorable success, but it still better than the alternative.
Does any of this make any sense at all to you people? Sometimes I wonder why more people have not just died from forgetting to breath.
