| AT&T never advertised MMS Only Apple advertised that MMS would be on the iPhone. AT&T has made no advertisements about the iPhone being MMS capable, except for saying it would be available "Late summer".
The reason it's delayed is due to network integration. I have a friend who works at AT&T corporate in Atlanta and he said it all has to do with routing and the MMS gateways still not being integrated into a single system. |

| Bullshit. It works on other phones. There should be nothing special going on with the iphone that makes it so standard stuff does not work. |
|
| It already works on my non jail broke 3gs wit a lil carrier update. theres no reason ATT hasnt rolled it out I send and recieve video and pics. with no problems at all |

most of those iPhone commercials have the ATT logo at the end of them too. At least the ones i've seen... |

I agree that we should have MMS, but the basis of this lawsuit is that AT&T and Apple advertised that MMS is available. Show me one AT&T advertisement that says "The iPhone has MMS." |

But those are Apple commercials. |

| I'm sure Apple wouldn't have put that in there unless there was some sort of commitment from ATT. |

Do you live under a rock?
Even the kiosk at our local AT&T store showed it as a feature..
I was at the store the other day and one employee complained it was not available and nobody talks about it.

AT&T is a partner - in with the good, and GD well right they are in with the bad. They are the reason it's being held up, and it's time they were slapped down. |

Correct. Once the MMS message leaves the IPhone(or any other phone), it is really considered the same message, travels the same way, through the same systems. |

There is no "network upgrade" or "systems upgrade", some stats guy in the back room said to the guys in suits that if they delay the use of SMS on the iPhone for X days it will create enough hype to generate more sales. Then the suits asked themselves what can they tell customers who want SMS but make it believable.
It's all about numbers; anyone who believes otherwise is a fool. How to maximize profits while keeping cost at a minimum. Of course, I personally wouldn't run a business like that because just look at how "hated" AT&T is right now. I have not heard of many companies go under who treat their customers right, with respect, and listen and adjusted to their feedback.
Or perhaps AT&T just needs a twitter. And if they have one, obviously they don't read it. |
