Again I do not speak for Sprint, and I don't work anywhere near the division that controls this stuff.
But think about it, what exactly did Sprint do that was wrong? They sold you a phone under the premise that it does not support MMS and you are complaining that it now doesn't work. Am I saying it is right? No! I hate it just as much as the rest of you and have signed all the petitions. The only reason I said to contact HTC was that they could build it into the new rom due out for GPS and rev A. They can influence Sprint to fix the problem since their website is posting conflicting evidence. Sprint from a legal point has done absolutely wrong. From a moral point of view they pissed us all off by doing something we fell they shouldn't have. Don't hate me for what my company did to both you and me. I didn't do it and I'm not justifying them doing it, but they have the power and the legal ability to do it and there is not a thing we can do about it.

sprint's answer to me
hey guys, this was my question, and the answer i got from sprint regarding MMS. pretty sure they don't care at all because we were all doing it illegally.
Question: Hello, i am writing to voice my extreme displeasure of you blocking picturemail recently on all of the PPCs that you carry. i currently own a 6700 and sending pictures via email while very much cheaper phones can use MMS is extremely foolish and aggravating. I am currently off contract and was waiting for something thinner and stable to come out to renew, but rest assured i probably won't be doing that anytime soon. more than likely, i'll be switching to either the Voyager or the Tilt, which are both superior to the best device that you guys offer. I had been staying with Sprint because of the customer service and clarity, but i've been paying for a service that has been blocked on my device for no good reason at all. even partially refunding me for the picture mail aspect of my plan wouldn't satisfy me at this point. Answer: We have not blocked picturemail on the Pocket PC devices. PPC devices can still receive picturemail. As far as sending it, pictures can be sent via email. This has been the case for some time. Our IT group did make some changes to our MMS server recently. We implemented measures designed to help prevent pornographic picturemail spam, which we received a large volume of complaints about over the last month. It would appear that these security changes, which included increased blocking on access to the server by non-Sprint applications, had the side effect of disabling a popular but unauthorized third party MMS "hack" that has been used by PPC users for some time. We do not have the power in our department to reverse these changes, nor can we log tickets for this issue as MMS is not a service we offer on the PPC devices. We apologize again for any inconvenience. Thank you again for contacting Sprint. We appreciate your business. Robert H. E-Care Sprint |

We're not talking about their blocking MMS on your HTC phones specifically, but the overall policy that MMS "isn't a business tool", and the general shoddy treatment of their customers. |
