iPhone MMS is Working
Yeah, it was a little bit of work, but as promised, AT&T delivered a new carrier file for it's US customers today and I just needed to "update" the software on my iPhone and it picked it up. Then, a simple restart of the phone and it was sending and receiving pictures and video messages on the SMS stream. Quite nice.
Now all I need is legal tethering!
UPDATE: the AT&T cell towers are all having a lot of trouble with this upgrade. It seems from about 3pm to 6pm it's nearly impossible to send and receive TXTs. I'm sure this is a surge of the MMS usage, but still. They could have planned for it. They have been collecting money for the capability, so they should get it going. Well... hopefully, it'll settle out soon.
