Does anyone know if this will be possible sometime?
Am wondering what move Vodafone is going to make next since Telecom are bringing out picture phones...

No one at a help desk will tell you with any certainty or authority.

It will happen in time, be patient my sons.

My pick is 3rd quarter of '05 (come back here then and quote me if you like :-)

Could come earlier maybe, Telecom is offering free MMS at the moment
So once they start charging, then maybe inter-network pxt will come :)

Good point. Although I think Telecoms MMS traffic even while free would be fairly negligible compared to 021 due to the relative infancy of MMS on 027

Telecom's advertising says free MMS doesn't apply to 021/029 mobiles so they could easily introduce it tomorrow.

Having said that however there are a lot of differences between MMS on both networks and somebody please tell me if I am wrong but I was told there is currently no network in the world with a functioning commercial MMS gateway between CDMA and GSM.

I read somewhere two days ago about a project to link ALL providerrs in the states for MMS, but I cant find it now. It was on a mainstream internet news site if anyone else can remember seeing it.

I got Told By Telecom that It has nothing to Do with them or Vodafone New Zealand . It's something to do with the European Vodafone. I can't remember exactly.

I help run a youth program and we currently email the kids with event details etc but we are wanting to use an 027 mobile for this (using the $10 txt). Is there a phone or way that you know of with a send to all in address book function?
