For my day job, I stood in line and got a T-Mobile G1 yesterday, and I’ve been playing with it and mentally comparing it to my beloved iPhone. One feature I had been used to not having is MMS, and it only occurred to me after having the G1 for about 24 hours to check out its messaging capabilities. I created a new text message, and then pressed the menu key and then selected the Attach option, and up popped a list of items I could add: pictures, audio, or a slideshow. A small sigh escaped me as I eyed these options. How I miss MMS! How I hate having to text my friends who send me MMS messages and ask them to re-send it via email so I can see the picture instead of going to the dreaded AT&T viewmymessage.com site! How I miss not being able to record something silly and sending it to my husband, who has no trouble getting MMS messages on his crappy Razr!
It’s probably hopeless to keep hoping that Apple will add MMS capability to the iPhone at this point, but I don’t think I can help it.
