In specifically what licensed "software upgrade package" do you believe that you received the Arcsoft application?

As has also been discussed extensively on that forum, Sprint Picture Mail is described in the Sprint online marketing materials as including only the ability to send pictures to computers and to Sprint phones. It does not claim to allow sending pictures to devices on other carriers' networks, nor does it specify what method is available to send pictures. Since you can currently email pictures from your phone to devices on almost any carrier's network, you are actually receiving more services than the Sprint plan actually includes.
So then why is Sprint so DAMN cheap? Hey Sprint, SPEND MONEY on a license!

QUIT BEING CHEAP. Just like opting for CS reps from The Philippines and outsourced domestic reps that aren't directly employed by Sprint, this will come back to bite you.
