AT&T rolling out MMS to iPhone on September 25, tethering 'in the future'
- phsr 17y agoI don't look forward to the rolling outages due to the fact that they underestimated the amount of MMS traffic that will occur when this goes live. I really wish their network was better. I mean, most phones have MMS, so why is the iPhone going to change things, other than the fact that a huge chunk of people will be added.
- jsz0 17y agoThe general theory as I've heard it is iPhone users are far more likely to actually use their phone's features which puts a heavier load on networks that are over subscribed based on a usage model of less data per device. I tend to believe this is true because on my last phone, which I know DID support MMS, I never saw a GUI option for it.
- icey 17y agoI'm happy for this just so I don't have to get irate every time someone sends me an MMS which AT&T tells me I can view on their shitty "viewmymessages" portal... which renders everything in FLASH. (Which is not available for the iPhone.)
- jlintz 17y agoSo AT&T lied when it said "late summer" , more like early fall. /me waits for the next lawsuit.
