who else is sick of useing viewmymessage? i don't know about you but it don't work 80% of the time

come on apple $600 for a cell phone that can't do what free phones can ... makes me want to put signs on my cars and and trucks listing what the great iphone can't do ..i have over 100 cars and trucks in my fleet that cross the country everyday. ...apple was fast at stoping us from useing the new ringtone hack but still not given us things we should of had from the start.

yea! This sucks! There has to be a better way to do this. I mean really c'mon Apple and At&t what gives ? It wouldnt be so terrible if you could just click a link in the txt and have it open the browser. Couldn't someone write a widget for mms?

I agree. When someone sends me a picture over the phone its like agony trying to go to viewmymessage.com to try and see it.

Does anyone know the reason why there is no MMS support whatsoever? This is just silly, Apple.

Yes. Any time someone sends you a text (SMS or MMS) it goes against your text message balance.

I am so sick and tired of this as well. I keep telling all my friends to stop sending me pics via MMS and send me the pics to my regular email addy which gets forwarded to my phone anyways. It wouldn't be so bad if the text had a clickable link like coinstar99 stated. The msg id is so hard to remember but the password isn't. If anything make both the msd id and pw easy to remember. Something so simple and Apple couldn't do it. I even have to send a special email to the person's MMS addy if I want to send a pic. I had to ask all my friends what carrier they had so I knew the proper email format to send them. It gets better. Only AT & T customers can send pics back and forth to each each via "your number here@mms.att.net". Someone else using a carrier other then AT&T has to send it to my regular email addy. Something so simple has turned out to be so complicated.
