Im debating on making the leap into the 8800 but just wanted to clarify one thing..i know the 8700c has issues with sending mms as cingular has blocked that feature, is this the case for the 8800 or are you allowed to send mms on the 8800..i currently have tmobile and would be getting an unlocked 8800. thanks

MMS on my 8800 works just fine.

ok. thats all that was holding me back

MMS is carrier based and specific. If you're on T-mobile, I don't see why you'd have an issue...

I had the same question. So cingular will allow mms messages on the 8800????

i have been receiving mms messages on my cingular 8800 fine.

Beautiful!
I've been waiting to see what the REAL reviews would be like for the 8800 before I got one. Everything that i've read thus far has been good. I will get mine tomorrow.

when you get your 8800,
you have to go to settings/options/advanced options/tcp
put these settings in:

apn: wap.cingular
username:
password: cingular1

these settings were not in my bb8800 and i could not receive MMS messages until i put them in...

That has actually been fixed by cingular/rim. You just need to do a register now and mms works without having to fill in that info.

MMS has been working on mine since day one.

watch out with cingular when they released the 8700 a few hundered of the first went out the mms working but then they cut it, but they have it as a feature this go around so it looks like its a go for cingular, you never know with them

It was not a go for my 8700 for over a year. When I got the pearl the first thing that I tried was MMS and it it did go and did the same with the 8800 jsut to be on the safe side.

i cant get mine to send any mms and i did the thing above lol

Make sure your account is provisioned correctly. Cingular allows it with little issue.

i called in to cingular and they fixed it for me all i did was reboot after leaving the battery out for 2 min and i could send and recieve mms
