AT&T schedules MMS for September 25th, tethering? "Ask us later"

Agreed. I don't think Apple will switch 100% to Verizon, but I think both AT&T and Verizon will have the iPhone next summer. (LTE?). Distributing the load that iPhones put on a network over 2 companies will help a lot.

I think the chances of this same thing happening on VZWs network was a MUCH slimmer chance of happening. Every year VZW invests more money back into their network to keep AHEAD of what will be expected of their network. In fact, from year to year, VZW invests an avg. of $5.5 BILLION back into their network. This far outpaces the rest of the current U.S. networks. Second, VZW is a private joint venture between Verizon Communications(55%) and Vodafone(45%). This means that the usual BS associated with stockholders, unions, etc can be avoided. ATTs network is just a total epic FAIL. Why else does ATT fall into the one of the bottom rankings consistently in third party research?

September 22nd is the end of Summer.

September 23rd is the beginning of fall.

Look it up.

So as long as MMS is active by midnight Eastern time on the 22nd of September ATT is in the clear.

Since it was told to Apple users that AT&T would be releasing and have active the MMS Feature by the end Of Summer, Binding as Sept 23 12:01 am. or 0001 hours sept 23rd.

By the way Summer IS still considered Sept 22nd up until midnight and one minute past.

Lets argue about a feature if the MMS feature not being active on the 23rd of September, The First day of "FALL" and then there would be something to have a discussion about.

Any other arguments are not note worthy until the date is surpassed and the MMS feature is Not Active, as of Sept 23rd.

Also all lawsuits about the MMS feature not being active will be dropped since the Legal Terms are, and considers by the U.S as Sept 22 Midnight. Form internal Memos and "fine Print".

And this falls on the Verbal and written promise of AT&T Being Quoted as Saying. "By The End Of Summer". Again the End Of Summer is 12:01am Sept 23rd.

These are Facts, How Ever anyone can twist facts, but in a court of law, Facts and Evidence Prevail.

Anyway, MMS is an added Feature not active with the original contract, Since the AT&T Contract has no such provision as yet written up for the Terms of MMS Functionality.
Get ready for a Contract Change and Stipulations added to all AT&T data Plains with the Terms of MMS and If such cost will be an Additional Feature included with limits or a Plain fee with Limited and Unlimited Plans added to each Users Contract.

In Any case The Current AT&T Contract has No Such Provision sine MMS is Not Active or Even Exists Yet, So By a legal Standpoint AT&T Covered there Preverbal Butts by not including a MMS Addition to Contracts that where previously in use.
Rest Assured they will add an addition to the Contract and it will be more cost to the Consumer either by using Your Data Plain limits now and or forcing all users that want that feature to have a data plan mandatory for all users, With Limits of usage ect.

Anyway you slice it, We will see how much controversy it stirs up.

Sometime wishing for something is not as beneficial after the fact.

Apple starting from the ground up sounds like a GREAT idea-you think AT$T is bad...

Knowing Apple, it would take them 5 years but then it would kick ass. Don't think I want to be without my iPhone for that long...
