Re: MMS - is it true - will not be supported by Nokia.
 
I'm inclined to agree with rash.m2k. This is the first Maemo device to have any cellular connectivity at all so I'm not surprised that every single feature isn't implemented. They had to get the device out at some point and that meant leaving stuff out that they didn't consider a priority.

The way they are touting M6 as mass-market ready I'd be surprised if it didn't have both MMS and 3G video calls out of the box.

Fmms is going well... it's improved ten fold in a month, and there is no reason why it can't be integrated. - Frals has discussed this :D

The brainstorm community is an interesting one... I agree not everything is being done, but as the device and OS is still new... The developers most likely are working on their first apps? - or apps they specifically want.

So in my case for example i created a brainstorm for a healthcheck idea - and my first app - is a healthcheck app :D - nothing saying i wont delve into brainstorm later and pick other ideas i like :D

I feel that you are going to read into the state of things as you wish :D - your perogative - i'm very excited about the future of the N900 :D
Lets also remember that the stuff being done with fMMS will lead the way for other developers to use better integration.

With a little pushing we can also get nopkia to provide help with integrating into conversations.

Maemo is supposed to be an open source platform. If users want features that nokia do not support the best approch is to nag them to help developers here with missing information. Overall we will get more functionality that way.

And this already works for some people (I haven't connected manually to the mms-APN with the latest few versions).

I agree with you that it doesn't need integration with conversation, as I see it.

I would appreciate it greatly if you would provide a link to one such video.

However, as has been pointed out previously in this thread:

We will help him with the UI in the lines of the UX Meets Code hackfest, and we will also help dealing with some Maemo interfaces fMMS needs (the release of the wappushd-dev package in the last Maemo SDK update was a first step).

In fact we have invited frals to visit the Maemo headquarters in Helsinki, so he can meet our developers and designers face to face.

Why has this been moved from the N900 forum?

yeap! You dont need connect manually to receive mms. You get push msg and all you need to do is tap on it.

This thread has to do with Maemo 5's lack of native MMS support. The N900's hardware doesn't prevent MMS support, and were there other Maemo 5 devices on the market in addition to the N900, there's no reason to believe Nokia would provide official MMS functionality on some of them but not others. So, "Maemo 5" not "N900".

?? Its N900 related is it not. In addition its not an 'app' its an integral function for a GSM/3G device.

Nokia verbally said MMS would be coming to the N900, they let the community write and write saying it would be supported. Why didnt they come flat out and say the N900 wont support MMS. Im sick of Nokias disingenuous ways.
