It is basically the same thing but there are no size restictions via email and you can add as much as you like. Make sure your recipient has a hotmail, Gmail or any other home POP email client set up (ie tiscali, blueyonder, btinternet, etc). It is inifinitley easier than mucking around with an mms programe, it will litterally take a minute or two and have a 100% success rate.

Don't faff around with an archaic method of transfering data that doesn't work for some stupid reason thru thislinux based system. And as much as the designer tries, it is not a reliable alternative to standard phones. It's exactly the same process as setting up an email account on your computer and pretty much every phone available nowadays can do this. My wifes samsung from 5 years ago does so I'm sure your recipiemts does too. Just remember an mms is just an email!

Perhaps some people don't want to synchronise their entire inbox via their mobile connection every time they wish to check for messages, certainly not to receive an MMS in the form of an email they don't know was sent. MMS is instant, universal, simpler to use and doesn't drain on the mobile connection so for a lot of people this will be cheaper too.
