Not really. I have seen no stats that support this. MMS is in fact so unpopular that even Apple decided to drop it altogether on the iPhone. But i agree, it is used. This might justify some work on this topic in Sadly not (yet). But i can see a change happening here. Internet[tm] becomes more and more relevant on phones. The iPhone leads this trend with many users and other phones don't fall short on this front too. PS: As indicated in this thread. MMS seems to be only a question of working GPRS with QTopia. So expect MMS to work soon... ;) _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
I think if you were to pop into a local British boozer on a Friday night, you would probably see empirical evidence supporting the popularity of MMS. I wouldn't expect any of these users to fall into the Freerunner's target market, however.

I know that teens aren't really the target right now, But they have a lot of spending power, and can make or break almost anything. So in time we should defiantly have support for MMS, it's not important now, but will be in the future. - Lasse _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

This is after all the company that neglected (and is still refusing) to include flash support on their phone. This is also the company that concluded no one sends messages to multiple recipients and no one likes to customize their phones. A quick search will reveal that a huge chunk of consumers disagree with those decisions. MMS is alive and well amongst the masses and email will only replace it when all phones have push email capabilities with little to no packet data charges. ------=_Part_3134_25503661.1211856162700 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline <br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, May 26, 2008 at 10:38 AM, Tilman Baumann &lt;<a href="mailto:tilman@baumann.name">tilman@baumann.name</a>&gt; wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <br> MMS is in fact so unpopular that even Apple decided to drop it altogether on the iPhone.<br> <br> But i agree, it is used.
