MMS to be included in Regular Text Message Bundle

admin · 06-15-2009, 10:52 AM

Again, similar to what I posted last night, it is confirmed that MMS will be included in any standard iPhone text messaging bundle of family messaging plan. Tethering will be available "in the future" and I am fairly certain that will set you back an extra $60/month.

It's ridiculous the way they created a parallel pricing plan with ONLY txt specifically for the iPhone. I made them change my plan last summer or so and have been using SwirlyMMS successfully. I can't complain about the service AT&T provides both in terms of reception and customer service

Screw AT&T's tethering, I will stick to PDAnet.

Supposedly, they are implementing a tethering policy that would charge you a LOT of money for doing something like that.

I don't use it a lot at all though, just once a month for about 30 mins. I think I should be fine.

Yeah ATT does have a system in place which can detect a tethered phone, and they willl charge you for it..

Does anyone have the "push notifications" icon on their 3g s? I don't and don't know why. Any help please.

You need to enable push notifications via the app. For example Tatp Tap Revenge asks you if you would like to enable the push notifications. once you say yes, go to settings and you should see a new "Notifications" bar!
