Apple iPhone 3G
MMS on iphone - this should work
I think MMS can be done with the iphone email appl to any MMS capable phone by attaching the photo and sending to ATTcellnumber@mms.att.net
Can sent to tmobile, verizon etc see

P.S. most MMS capable phones, like my Nokia, can send MMS to an email address. So friends just need to know to send to your email (on iphone) instead
...
I read the forums on macworld. I was toild you still cannot SAVE an attachment from your email. True or not so?
...
Don't know for certain. But what I found on line (cnet, iphonebuzz, macrumors, etc) is that firmware 2.0 allows saving photo attached in emails.
...
Even if you could send an email with a picture attached it still won't be MMS. Email uses the internet, MMS uses data like SMS that is why it's much-much quicker. Also, sending via email is very slow.
...
Ha on the quicker part. I disagree on that. I can send an email and get it quicker than my message not getting through for several hours. My friend has sent me videos of his child and i still haven't received them.

It is about the same speed for me using my Nokia.
The other reason to not use MMS, on my nokia anyway, is that it always takes my 1.3Mp image and scales it down to 640 x480 before sending via MMS. With email (and the required unlimited data plan) I can send full resolution images.
I think that is why MMS will be going 'bye-bye' in the future.

here's an even better reason to use email rather than text messages.
you have unlimited data on the iPhone by default. email uses data. AT&T charges more if you want more SMS/MMS, so if you use email you can go with the cheapest plan.

shoot, another reason to prefer email over SMS/MMS. if your phone dies, or there's a service outage, what have you, etc.... Any SMS someone sends you are lost to whatever ghoul it is that eats lost text messages, and you'll never get them back.
emails, however, go to internet servers where they are safely ensconced until you decide to peek at them. you can even check them from other devices, filter spam, use colors, styles, and html in many cases (no idea if iPhone supports this... yet).
