AT&T today said that just a few days after Summer ends, the iPhone will finally get the ability to send and receive MMS messages.
The company has said that the functionality will be enabled with a software update downloadable through iTunes, and will only be available on iPhone 3G and 3GS models.
A message from the carrier today said, "We know that iPhone users will embrace MMS. The unique capabilities and high usage of the iPhone's multimedia capabilities required us to work on our network MMS architecture to carry the expected record volumes of MMS traffic and ensure an excellent experience from Day One. We appreciate your patience as we work toward that end."
"We're riding the leading edge of smartphone growth that's resulted in an explosion of traffic over the AT&T network. Wireless use on our network has grown an average of 350 percent year-over-year for the past two years, and is projected to continue at a rapid pace in 2009 and beyond. The volume of smartphone data traffic the AT&T network is handling is unmatched in the wireless industry. We want you to know that we're working relentlessly to innovate and invest in our network to anticipate this growth in usage and to stay ahead of the anticipated growth in data demand, new devices and applications for years to come."
i wont believe this until I have mms flowing in/out of my 3g! until then, I just dont believe it!

|AT&T deserves every drop of grief they get on this. All of the other carriers were ready, which means there was no excuse that they could not be as well.
