The big news this Friday is that MMS is finally coming to the coveted iPhone, which is great, because I’m sick of hearing people bitch about it. We actually thought we’d see MMS enabled with the big 3.0 update, but nope, took a few more months than expected while AT&T got their shit together. Let’s all get MMS, send off our first message and forget that the service even exists. That’s how it’s going to be.
Anyway, if you’re following along, AT&T will be upgrading your phone tomorrow via your carrier settings. Your iPhone will have to be plugged into iTunes for the update to take effect. AT&T plans to release the update by early afternoon EST.
So basically, you can bet your ass that around noon tomorrow Twitter will be in an outrage, full of people enraged that they haven’t received their MMS yet. Prepare for an onslaught of #myfirstmms hash tags.
As a T-Mo user, all I can say is Good Luck.
AT&T will need it.
… Oddly, we’ve had MMS on our iphones in Canada since 3.0.
I hate being stuck with Rogers or Fido here… but at least it’s not AT&T.
I don’t think ATT is all that bad. I have had them for forever. I think it depends on where you live, type of phone, and how you talk to them when you call. That is just me though!
