Same goes as MMS is being support be the community right now. fMMS is the application you may need to install to make your device MMS-able. In my point of view MMS is not important in my everyday life. I barely touched it at all on my other MMS capable devices.

The only time I gave it a played is when it first came out, otherwise it's a technology that outdated and inefficient and could also lead to bullying in schooling as well.

I don't find MMS a must have functionality toward N900. That may be just me though.
I have been involved in brainstorming, I have both thought of ideas, solutions an contributed to debates. After 4 months... only 4/5 applications have ever been created as a result of brainstorm (have a look on the brainstorm status!!), Ive come to the logical conclusion that Brainstorm is a talking shop - and nothing else. Its not working and applications are not being created as a result of it. This for me is killing the N900, its very sad indeed.

Just wondering....
shouldn't peoples reactions to the lack of mms be enough of a reason.regardless of the fact its old technology lots of people use it. just because there are better options doesnt mean the old method should be thrown out the window

its the same question as why use a normal land line or mobile which costs considerably more than VOIP. VOIP is free (with data package or wifi) your n900 has it but i bet most people here still use the normal phone.

what your saying is the same thing apple tried to say when the first iphone came out. who needs mms you have email. due to pretty much the entire world laughing at them they soon caved in. do you think your argument is going to change things lol

either way i use mms lots, or did but im gonna start playing about with fmms now i know nokia are not going to official support it. the popularity of the app alone should show how much people want mms

I think one day Nokia might consider people whining about the MMS and decides to add it in the official. But it is one day So keep up your hope guys.. Who ever wanting MMS, just keep it up.

Let us pray to the lord Nokia!! Oh dear king of all king, please bring us the MMS that we are waiting for on the N900, I know that it will eventually appear before us. With our true spirit and soul, we may pray in Nokia name, Amen!

AKA: Sacarsm lol

Because not all of my friends have smart phones with email access. Picture messages are much easier to receive and view then pulling up your phone's email client.

Considering the power of the platform I see no other reason besides laziness in creating an integrated MMS solution. I mean how hard can it be for Nokia?

The N900 may be an internet tablet but the fact remains that it's also a phone. Customers have come to expect certain standards for the phones they buy and the whole point of this is to get the best of Both worlds.

Anybody else noticed the price of the N900 keeps on falling and falling? Maybe mine is next to be sold at a discounted rate.

points understood, especially about friends not having smartphones and about people wanting it in general.

But i wouldnt liken it to voip vs mobile or landline. it doesnt require using completely different hardware/infrastructure.

you are correct in saying its a phone because its sold mainly with phone contracts. i do feel nokia need to understand that people are buying this product and networks are selling it because its a phone. I know i would not have got it if it wasnt a "phone".

I think nokia should awknowledge this!
