No offense to those who have been waiting breathlessly for MMS, but...
Whoop-de-f-ing DOO.
I'm struggling to grasp the earth-shattering need to watch the latest 'hey dig me now!' photo come in in real time, but to each his own. Hardly worth the churn its generated tho'.
Very weird right? Like the kind of thing you would expect in some kind of state of emergency .
When it happened to me I tried to call a few different numbers and all respond in the way you describe and I also had to reboot which immediately solved the issue.
No, the original iPhone was not 3G. It was EDGE. If she has the original iPhone, she cannot do MMS. If she has 3G she does not have 200 messages included in her plan. The 200 included messages was only on the original (EDGE) iPhone plan.
So you have 3GS, but what does she have? 3G or the original iPhone (EDGE)?
Requires iPhone OS 3.1 eh? Hmmm, should I sacrifice my 3.0-based tethering, or upgrade for MMS? I'll stick with tethering and no application-genius thank you very much lol.
+1 I Have a jailbroken phone which does everything I need.

She has 3G and 200 messages (from when we upgraded from the original iphone, the 200 included texts stayed). I had to add 200 messages for mine within our family plan because I wanted some texting capability so again she has 3G (200 texts) and I have 3GS (200 texts). Thanks in advance.

I haven't heard of plans carrying over like that. When I upgraded my original to 3GS, I had to sign a new contract and go with the plan. Which was unlimited data and no messages included. So I had to buy a messaging plan.
If what you say is true, (that her 200 messages are included, rather than paid for separately), then maybe AT&T is treating her like she doesn't have a paid messaging plan and not sending the actual messages. I bet a call to AT&T could clear that up.

Thanks and I most likely will but I will assume ATT is really going to be busy these next few days after this activation. We text each other and other people all the time and I just checked our ATT account online and we do indeed both have 200 text messages each. I had thought sending a photo was going to be just like sending a text. Perhaps I am wrong?

some people elsewhere on blogs have been reporting the same thing, perhaps there are some kinks they need to work out still? or server propagation? maybe the problem will resolve itself soon

Another "doubter". Thanks for enlightening us.
In typical Apple fashion it just works and it works well. It blends right into the existing sms function. This is much better than emailing mm files.
CAN YOU SAY THAT AGAIN???
MEL ARE YOU LISTENING?
Sent my first MMS (a pic) to a friend who replied back with a pic.
Time to party like it's 2002, people.

If she has 200 messages included with her plan, does she have an original iPhone? The MMS functionality only works on the 3G and 3GS...
Yes hers is 3G and mine is 3GS.

Are you sure about that? Do you have a link? I thought it was free with a separate MESSAGING plan.
My bad...it is the messaging plan.
