I was just told that my phone has been flashed. I live in the US and so I pay for this service. I wanted to be clear what I was getting. I have not received the handset yet, but have been told from the guy who flashed the software the I now have MMS. the R2-A designation relates to the hardware version of the phone. the software is R1A-108

I will let you know if I have MMS or not

Not sure whether you can get the hardware upgraded without changing the phone. the software is what is key

i dont know i kinda think that if there is a r1b there should have been a r1a and if so then that since it was not published , could have possibly had the funstions that ericsson advertizes for! like MMS. So i think that the first edition "r1a" still has some bugs and they would be fixed and hopefully published as r2b. so do you believe the people who talk about r1a? any how im so happy that gprs launched recently! its so much better but a little more expensive!
