Hey all,
Just wanted to know from you guys (and gals)...who here actually uses MMS? No-one that I know of do and neither do I. Ever since i got my first phone which was MMS enabled around 3 years ago, i have probably only sent 2 MMS messages, bith of which were just to test out my settings....
Would like to hear some views on this

Its very rare that I send MMS.
The guys at work use it a lot as it lets them send pictures from the site where they are working back to the office to see the progress.

I've probably sent about a dozen or so MMS's in the last 3 years! Nice feature to have handy, but not really found much use of it yet....
....though my girlfriend has found a use!

This fone feature has been a LOT of help to me through the years most specially when my Aunt died of Cancer last July of 2004. Almost half of my relatives now lives in the US (CA), and with the use of my K700i back then, I manage to send a real-time 'progress' report about her condition in the hospital with her siblings abroad, I really don't have time to take images with my digicam and transfer it to my PC then send . . . it will surely be time-consuming, time is of the essence here . . . I was sending pics with text attached almost every after 4-5 hours (she only lasted 3 days in the hsopital). When my Aunts and Uncles came after day 4 (they did not able to see her breath her last), they praised me for the effort I did. I do still remember my Uncle told me: "Jojo, you made a good news update " and I replied: "Anything for Aunt, also to test my new  K700i's cam feature" . . . as my Uncle was very much pleased about the emails I sent them, he even gave some money for it.

i use mms more than sms, even if is just for text because since it was launched in my operator about 2 years ago, it have been free. I only use sms when i want to contac somebody who use another operator

I have used it fairly regularly, but mainly to get information back to tech crews quickly.
However lots of my girlfriends use it all the time when out at the weekends
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

MMS is of a BIG use here at my end. I do remember some of my friends using that feature when transacting their buy-and-sell business. If the buyer wanted to SEE how the item being sold looks like, their MMS capable phones are there ready to shoot (images) and SEND! Although there are some 'small' items that needs to be magnified thoroughly for small scratches, say, like when selling mobile fones or swiss-made watches at that.

I was a big MMS fan till last year. (Because it was free!)
Now to me, it seems a total waste of money...
I mean why do i need MMS when i have full gprs!
T230 >> T610 >> Ngage QD >> N73 >> N85 >> Omnia HD >> And countless other review units |
