VentureBeat: AT&T says multimedia messaging for iPhones — and other phones — will go live September 25th

    Other phones have already been able to do this on AT&T's network. Out of your element, Paul

    "MMS" stands for "multimedia messaging service" -first graph is like saying ATM machines.

    Who cares about iPhone MMS support from AT&T. I want tethering and not for $70/month.

    Sorry, but how is 9/25 still "late summer"?
    AT&T can't man up and apologize for not bringing iPhone customers MMS before Fall? What a bunch of crap.

    I'm with you Mr. Olson, why would i need MMS so bad if I could have tethering? I think tethering should be the priority over MMS - if i have to choose one, I choose tethering. And didn't AT&T also say they would have THAT service out in "late summer" too?? I'm likely just going to jailbreak my iPhone for tethering if they decide to charge a premium. And i'll bet i'm not alone either. Since I can't get an iphone hardware upgrade from AT&T for a new iphone less than $350.00 or whatever it is now, then what's to stop me from jailbreaking it now, tethering to the internet and then just buying a newer, cheaper iphone next year with a "new" EULA - The "new" phone wouldn't be jailbroken, but my old one still would be, why couldn't i just switch the sim card back and forth for using the internet. That's my theory, isn't that idea feasible? AH a Customer Loophole, I think i'm on to something here...

    Who is waiting for MMS?
    It was a fail all over Europesince launch about 5-6 years ago.
    Way to expensive.
    People take pictures and then upload them online for exposure to friends and family.

    Maybe iPhone users are a group of people that will pay for exposing their exploits visually immediately.
