Internal AT&T Memo Indicates Groundbreaking iPhone 3G Feature: MMS
Check this out. New reports are coming in that a very interesting memo is currently circulating internally at AT&T. Said memo reportedly lists a variety of features that will supposedly be included on the upcoming iPhone 3G. Among them is an exciting new service that – get this – allows you to send SMS-like messages that include multimedia attachments. Imagine! The service, cleverly named Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) supposedly allows users to attach one or more image, audio file or even video and deliver the message along with text. The recipient of the message will then see and / or hear the multimedia on his or her mobile. Nutty. None of this is confirmed as of yet, but how sweet would it be if a mobile phone had functionality like this?! Oh Apple, you’ve done it again! Next thing you know we’ll find out that Apple has figured out a way to copy text from one place and paste it to another. Ok, that’s just crazy talk.
iPhone and MMS. Very nice step forward. Now we just need that copy and paste thingy and bluetooth stereo.
Stupid RIM, give me back my son!!, er, gimme a Bold – quickly, b/c like I said, I might go iPhone out of sheer spite.
Phones have cameras?!
Brilliant, I love the writing. Conrad, well said, give me back my son please.
I want the iPhone and the Bold, can it be done for under a grand?
NO CRAP! I’ve *always* wanted to be able to send someone a picture from my phone! Thank GOD for the iPhone, otherwise, what on earth would we do?
so hate to ask a stupid question – but will existing at&t customers who are not eligible for an upgrade at this time be able to get an iPhone?
Let’s see how many iPhone copy cats will adopt this groundbreaking feature. I hope Apple patented it.
I call shenanigans
holy crap thats amazing. i wish other phones could do this, oh wait………
Anyone notice, that it was tmobile branded in the top left hand corner? ha ha
okay…not to point out the obvious but doesn’t anyone else see “T-Mobile” listed as the current service of the phone in the image? I’m sure AT&T would not send out a memo with that sort of image.
Anyone notice this has a T Mobile Signal as Carrier in the pic? Photoshop?
have you ever heard of unlocking an iPhone? It lets you use the iPhone on other GSM carriers. Crazy huh?
Umm…yeah. That’s just SwirlyMMS
Well why would someone sending an internal at&t memo be using a jail broken iphone on T-Mobile to hype up MMS on the iphone on at&t?
Yes, by why would the unlocked iPhone on T-Mobile be included in the AT&T internal memo?
OMG!!! This is a feature I’ve always wanted and now Apple, of all companies, has figured a way out to implement this feature into the iPhone!!??! That is amazing!
I’m definitely buying the new iPhone now!!!
LOL@the article….**golf clap** very funny.
cue the fanboys in 3,2,1…
The only way that the phone WOULD be an unlocked phone is if the mms is embedded into the software update and actually available on the first iPhone. If not, why would there be a 3G iPhone that’s jailbreaked on an internal memo?
THIS specific picture was not included with the memo, its simply an app for a jail broken iphone.
That UI is horrendous — it has to be a fake. Apple wouldn’t make something like that. It would show a properly formatted phone number (or a name, if in your address book), and most importantly it would show a thumbnail of the actual image you selected — it wouldn’t show a freaking filename! Nowhere else on the iPhone OS do you deal with filenames. They don’t mean anything — the image *itself* means something to the user. So regardless of whether or not MMS is coming, those shots are either fake or from a program not written by Apple.
SwirlyMMS btw.
There has also been a rumor that if you input a series of numbers, you could use the device in a fashion to communicate with other. How cool is that!
FUCKING FINALLY!
Those screenshots are definetly of an unlock iPhone using SwirlyMMS
