Did you check out the article with the AT&T Q&A? That’s a relief. It’s been so long since I had mms capability, for some reason I thought I remembered it costing a little more than sms. Seems like I remember paying for an SMS package and an mms package seperately when I had mms capability back in the day on my RZR. Guess I’m just imagining things. Like I said, it’s been a while!

Hey Cory,

I am still on a Cingular Sim Card and if i use any type of cellphone other then a iphone i can use the mms under my present contact with unlimited texting(which covers sms & mms).

I ask the question since iphones do not do the mms like other phones.

I understand that 3.0 will allow this to happen on just the 3G & 3GS but when i looked to upgrade my account with any iphone 3G or 3GS,the plan under multimedia messaging is not offered,just offers NO or Opt Out.

So once mms is available at the end of the summer as what AT&T says,then what?

Are we going to pay extra or have it under the unlimited messaging feature?

These are the questions that i wonder about,So as to saying MMS is not free is not correct,it is free since before the iphone i was using samsung/motorola/nokia/palm….

I did pay for unlimited but it was still under the text plan regardless if it was a MMS OR SMS.

I’m pretty sure you’ll have to pay an early termination fee for cancelling. Just call AT&T and ask em, they’ll let you know what your options are.

Mms isn’t free on any device. Why would that be any different for the wildly popular iPhone?

Ok I have a family plan with just two numbers both are 3g phones and I can’t upgrade until 3/2010. But could I add a line and cancel an old one so I could get the new iPhone with out paying to end my contract?

I’m holding onto my 3G for another year I think, I could upgrade sooner, but just don’t think it is worth it.

In UK, they are saying that one MMS will cost the same as FOUR SMS in your allocation

You know that in another six months there will be some new iPhone that apple releases to make the 3Gs look like a POS. I’m keeping my 3G at 2.2.1 jailbroken until the 3.0 firmware comes out.

That’s what I was wondering at first. But I called and made sure with customer service and they told me just to call them when I get the phone and they will switch it over to my line. Although I will have to pay for one day of 3G data even if my Moms sim card never even touches the 3GS. It’s ok though, it will only be a couple bucks. I’m sure if I raise a stink about it they might wave it but I don’t care. I was happy that they would allow me to use my Moms upgrade to get a subsidised price on an iPhone.
