A knew company has announced that they are working on a MMS solution for the iPhone. Compared to SwirlyMMS this will be released in the App Store or you will be able to get it later via your Operator. Mobispine’s full announcement after the break.
As you know, Mobispine is always working on innovative ways to respond
to market demands. We noticed there was a lack of an MMS on iPhone and
spotted an opportunity to test our wits. I’m happy to say that once
again, the Mobispine team came up trumps! We’re currently the only
company ready to sell MMS on iPhone to global operators — who will
then offer the service to end-users.
Right now, we’re offering the MMS on iPhone service to its many global operators. We’re excited about the chance to enable MMS for iPhone users.
We’re confident that operators will find the service easy to use and
profitable with an opportunity to expand messaging usage, improve subscriber retention and increase revenue. The service will also increase customer loyalty and recognition as the brand is displayed on the user’s phone. The application will be branded for
each operator and distributed via the App store.
We’re sure that iPhone users are awaiting this service with bated
breath! We look forward to delivering innovative technologies that
differentiate operators and ultimately satisfy iPhone user’s demands
for expanded features.

I people want MMS they should just pay the $8 for SwirlyMMS. It works perfectly NOW. I know it requires jailbreak, but a jailbroken iPhone is a happy iPhone. For example, mine has:
Better camera app with zoom and multi-shot (Snapture)
Video recording (Cycorder)
Send/recieve MMS (SwirlyMMS)
A flashlight app which maxes out the brightness of the display (not available through App Store)
MxTube for downloading and viewing high quality youtube videos away from wifi
Pdanet, which allows very easy tethering over wifi
dTunes, to search for, download and play music
Firefly, which allows the iPhone to stream it’s music to any computer on the same wifi network, through itunes (it appears in the sidebar automatically)
BiteSMS, which allows you to send cheap texts abroad and compose in landscape mode.
The app store is good for games and a few other things, but a few apps on Cydia add real features which really matter.
Also, I wonder how apple feel about this :P
When I tried to use SwirlyMMS all I got were error messages. No matter what setting configuration I tried. What settings did you have to try?
I got my settings sent to me over the air. You can do it through nokias site, which you can get to through SwirlyMMS. I don’t think it works for iPhone 3G on AT&T unless you call AT&T and get them to change a few settings on your account. If you search for SwirlyMMS on YouTube you should be able to get some help.
i second that
I’ve herd swirlymms doesn’t work for at t customers..
I just STILL don’t understand why they can’t just add these features. There is literally no reason or answer they can give me that will justify it.
According to other sites, this would simply be an app, meaning it can’t run in the background. So you’d have to check the app yourself to see if you actually received something. THEN they’ve discussed adding a premium to send them, which is bullshit. When you buy the iPhone, you’re forced to buy the unlimited data plan so you shouldn’t have to pay anything extra. But then that also just makes me wonder why we pay for texting in the first place since we have unlimited data.
Last time I checked, words sent back and forth would be considered data.
at&t considers text to be different than data, thus the text plan and then a data plan.
Does anyone have any idea when this will b hitting the App Store?
