I did. Both ways, all you receive is an SMS notification requiring you to log online to view your MMS.
@all: While I am not a prophet, with the benefit of hindsight, I prophesy that this forum will suddenly become very active from now till Sept 30, and then everyone will disappear again. Everyone except myself and a couple of others. Any contrary opinions?

Its been quite a while since Brix25 popped in here, wonder where he's at.
I also wonder where egunje, coola and areafada are.
At least I know where Seun is.
@Aya: I agree with you, but don't blame them if they take off when the service is no longer free, its additional expense some people can do without. As for you, the net is your life, right?
Please how do I attach emoticons (smileys) in my post from a pc?

If you'd been observing the SA thread you'd notice I've been there all along...also been lurking around the Naija thread but couldn't share the in the excitement of free GPRS.
I've also been busy at work so couldn't post as much I would've liked. I asked this before but could anyone please check if MTN are using EDGE...also I read someone on comment that their GPRS is fast- I suspect they've deployed GPRS+ which is good news for their subscribers.

@amby: colon, dash, and bracket closed for a wide smile 
colon, dash, and capital letter D for a broad grin with all teeth displayed 
colon, lol, and colon for laughing out loud 
NB: no spaces in between
@brix25: MTN GPRS is just about the same speed as Glo GPRS, which is 40kbps. I have used both extensively and should be able to tell.

@amby: Haba, I am around. I check in everyday but do not post as often.
As aya also noticed, glo gprs has been glitchy the past couple of days. It seems ok now. Touch wood
I am quite pleased about mtn's commencement of its gprs service. Yes, there may be a temporary surge of new posters but it is inevitable that a few will stay and enrich us all with their discourse
Besides, it will be nice to have more people to send and receive MMS to and from.
So when are the results of glo's raffle comming out?

Hi yah Brix, the volume of the SA thread scares me. Good to know you've been paying attention to our commentaries here.
My phone is not EDGE enabled, so I can't tell if MTN has EDGE here, but I'll try from a friends Nokia 6220 tomorrow.

What do I look for to determine EDGE capability on a network? My 9500 is EDGE-enabled, and I have my MTN SIM in it at present.

@Egunge: e ma binu.
I really havent tried accessing mms sent across networks; but now that my MTN sim is working again, I'll try downloading from the designated URL in the received text message.
I'll let you all know if it is successful.

To the best of my knowledge, most available GSM phones have no EDGE indicator. A few new ones, liken the Moto V55i, have an "E" icon to indicate EDGE presence.
For the rest, the only way to tell if you are on the EDGE is speed. MTN runs between 2 and 28 kilobits per second in practice on my 9500, according to the tests I have run. That's certainly far from EDGE speeds.
Anyone interested can run speed tests here:
