iPhones 3G and 3GS finally can send Multimedia

It appears that AT&T has survived the rush to add or download the new software in order to be able to send MMS. It has been a long wait, but it seems that everything has been working very well thus far.

Many critics are asking why it took ATT so long to equip their bread and butter with the feature that most people, users wanted all along. Even cheap cell phones had it. Just like the rest of iPhone users, I dutifully downloaded the new software in order to be able to send pictures, videos etc.

So far, it has been working very well. NO problems!

Japanese Perverts: Be Aware of iPhones Use in Public Places

The iPhone 3G in Japan has a special feature unique to that country: The camera always makes a conspicuous “shutter” sound when a picture is taken, even when the phone is set to “silent” mode.The loud shutter sound is supposed to deter voyeurs from taking sneaky pictures up women’s’ skirts — or down their tops.In Japan, upskirt and downblouse shots have become increasingly popular with the advent of high-resolution camera phones.As a result, all cell phones sold in Japan make a conspicuous shutter sound, or say the word “cheese” when a snap is taken, according to Nobuyuki Hayashi, a tech reporter based in Tokyo. On almost all new cell phones, the camera shutter sound can not be muted, Hayashi says.”Some manufacturers have even put louder shutter sound,” he reports.The shutter on the first iPhone sold in Japan could be muted in silent mode; an anomaly that many wondered whether Apple would correct in the iPhone 3G, Hayashi says.Apple did: The shutter sound cannot be turned off, even in silent mode, Hayashi says.
