Nice job, funny you started in the opposite direction from me with sMMS.

I just started the recieving part of sMMS last week, but had to stop working on it to work on the new release of the Composer. Anyway, are you pulling download Messages, Captions, and Subjects too? or just the Images? I'm having a little issue with that part.

But good job.

Your two apps put together would be great. Even better would be an integration with WM6.1 threaded SMS.

Features i've completed:

* Receive Sprint MMS messages
* Process text message and downloads picture
* Displays Picture
* Saves Picture to MicroSD Card

-- I have successfully sent a picture mail from my wife's Verizon cell phone to my cell phone and had it display correctly.

My intent for this software will be a full fledged send and receive MMS program allowing bidirectional MMS messages, Something we've been lacking on the Mogul/Touch.

I will take some screen shots and post them up here in a few and if anyone would like to beta test my software, send me PM and once i get something functional and a little more exception handling entered into the code I will send out some Alpha software.

Excuse the look, i'm more worried about the functionality before i work on the aesthetics

Is it just me, or do I smell a collaboration effort beginning?

I'm with hippity. If there's a way to integrate it with the 6.1 Threaded SMS, I think that would be my personal preference, but if it's "just" an MMS app, I really can't think of too many people on this planet that could really complain that much.

Excellent work buddy, make sure to let us know when you can start getting paypal donations. I'm sure almost anyone here would gladly donate.

I don't know maybe. I'll have to hear more about Seigex's plan. I don't plan on integrating SMS into sMMS. But we might be able to collaborate, since I have most of the framework done, and recieving at about 50%.

BTW I have to support Smartphones, I'm not sure if Seigex has that in the plans. Maybe only Touch/Mogul. And I sort of commited to BlackBerry support also.

Wow harsh, if you read the first post its going to be bi-directional

As said its only proof-of-concept at this point, I still have alot of work to do.

As far as SMS goes that was just an idea I threw out there to see what people wanted more, my original plan is no SMS either. For some reason it seams .net 3.5 has an easier time intercepting all SMS instead of putting conditions on it.

Definitely, intercepting the message is alot easier. You may want to go back to .NET 2.0, I originally had 3.5 as requirement then found out that with 5 minutes of extra work I was able to convert it. The reason I say that is because 2.0 is standard on the Touch and Mogul. And it has been hell helping folks install the .NET runtime, mostly Treo users though.
