No, it does not support MMS. The reason, according to some forums, is that it doesn't have a camera. Per Verizon policy, only devices with cameras get MMS -- even if they are multi-media capable. Go figure.

thats crappy, I'm starting to not like how verizon does things.

disable GPS because they don't have navagation software they can charge you for.

disable MMS because the phone dosnt have a camera. (what is the SD card for)



They should make a comercial that goes like this

Verizon guy: Can your here me now?
VG Freind: Yes I here you, where are you at?
Verizon guy: I dont know, verizon disapled my GPS so I just wonder around trying to find my way home. Hopfully I wont get robbed.
VG Freind: Hey look at this new car I just got, im sending you an MMS
Verizon Guy: Sorry I can't recieve pictures because verizon disabled that feature. Only people with cameraphones can do that.
VG Freind: Man you need to get a better phone
Verizon Guy: I can't get a better phone, this is a blackberry 8830 Its top of the line.
VG Freind: Really? Thats the same phone im using, I guess verizon just sucks.

Join the club..

Easy workaround, almost every phone out there that can send MMS can also email the picture. Just have them email it to you and you will have the lovely pic on your phone. Yay!
