I’ve got a genie unlimited text and wap sim card an all i pay is £10 a month does any body know when the mms is going to be released on the 02 payg network I know it works with my orange contract but that then defeats the fact of having a separate sim for text and wap to keep the bill to a minimum,,,
ps and how much will it cost

not sure i understand the 'defeating the purpose' part.
i know your not implying it will be free on o2 as you've asked for the cost...or were you?
i use the same Genie sim with a T-Mobile contract line...been thinking about trying MMS on T-Mobile but i'm still holding out, it doesnt really have that much appeal to me at the moment as all i'd really use it for would be to take pics with the MCA-20 and email to people which i can do now for free on the Genie sim.
whichever line you choose i've read MMS will not be cross network for a while so your recipients will have to be on the same network as you.

by defeating the object i ment that theres no point on texting from orange contract as my bills would be up in the zeros,,,,
if mms is not cross networking then there is no point on it at the moment untill they do,,, i think its just gonna be a gimmick as i wont use it a lot but it would be nice to try it

ok, i think i get you.
i have 2 T68's, makes things easier without having to swap sims all the time, i use both lines just text & wap only from my o2 sim.

o2 mms will cost 40p per message, if it is incorporated into a contract package the cost of each message is only 28p per message
this is the uk and correct at time of going to press
look at o2's media/press bit of the site and all info is there

dunno bout decoys settings but i do the same
the reason its free is because the acces to the pop3 account is via dial up and on my o2 tariff 500 of my wap dial up minutes are free, so since i use bout at most 300mins amonth on mailing then its free
i use blueyonder pop3 email
but as blueyonder doesnt support accesing its smtp unless its ur isp i use o2's smtp
so in my phone i got my incoming server as pop3.blueyonder.co.uk (though i got ip version which is 195.188.53.61)
my outgoing server as o2's smtp which is mail.o2.co.uk (again though i personally find more joy wiv ip which is 193.113.160.13)
mailbox : my blueyonder username
password : my blueyonder password
email address :

my email address !!
hope this helps
i did av this wrkin by gprs at one point but then i used a 7650 4 a week (not bad fone but prefere t68i still way more) n now it wont wrk wiv gprs only gsm dial up
neway...
