Just as pricey, more market share. Can they send MMS on sprint? No. It is a problem with smart phones. You were told this when you bought the phone. I'm sorry that you can no longer send pics to your daughter the easy way, if she is the only one you send them to how hard is it to add her as an email address direct to her picmail email. You know the carrier she is on. I don't mean to sound heartless but it is hard to sit and listen to people complain about something that is purely their fault. It is kindov like the lady that sued McDonalds because she spilt hot coffee in her lap and got burned. Did you think it was luke warm? I don't get it. Don't think I don't agree but it is no ones fault than our own for buying a phone that doesn't have the capability of sending them one click instead of three.

I don't want to beat a dead horse here, because I really don't care. I left Sprint for AT&T last month. Gladly paid the ETF for two lines. It wasn't because of this issue, but it certainly didn't help. It was mainly because Sprint has been telling me for years that they would have EVDO in my area and they are still the only carrier without 3G coverage here. But anyway, I agree some what with what you have said. Don't buy a phone that doesn't do what you want. By the same token, maybe Sprint shouldn't be allowed to sell me stuff that they can't provide. I bought a 700WX a year ago (my first WM phone) and the rep told me it would do NFL Mobile, Sprint TV and Picturemail. If I look hard enough I can still probably find hardcopy ads showing this. I mean they were out there advertising that the phone was capable of stuff it wasn't. But since they hold all of the chips they can get away with it. Its pretty sad really.
