said by PolarBear  :said by easonin :said by PolarBear :So how do you send someone a picture who doesn't get email on their phone? What I do is send the pic via email on my iPhone to their phonenumber@mms.mycingular.com for att. hits their phone like mms. I dont know anyone who doesn't have att though, so the other carriers might do it differently. I was waiting for someone to come up with that totally inconvenient idea. So then how would I do that to a T-mobile customer, or Verizon, Sprint, Cricket, Altell, Unicel, Boost, or Virgin customer? Sure, the ways are there, but are you really going to have that info on hand when you go to send someone something? In true Apple style, they made it a major pain in the ass to do something very simple (as was the entire point of this thread - needing another only-temporarily-free app to circumvent an otherwise extremely annoying process simply to use wifi). I just add email contacts to their contacts with the @mms.whatever for their company. *shrug* |

I don't even know anyone who doesn't get email on their phone, but I guess if you wanted to send a picture using MMS to a child or grand parent with an "old" phone you could use SwirlyMMS... it works great. |

But I was responding to your email post. No comments or is MMS the best you could pull out?
