I, for one, really could care less about this addition, but I know there are millions of over iPhone users out there that are celebrating this addition to their phones (my wife included!).
The first thing you need to do it connect your iPhone to iTunes and update new carrier software for your phone. This update only took me about 2 seconds, and then you are supposedly able to send photos with your phone to other cell phones. I had to actually restart my phone before I was able to send MMS messages on my iPhone, so if you have any trouble after the update just power your phone off and on and that should take care of it.
To make sure that you are ready for MMS on your iPhone go to settings > general > about > and verify your carrier says AT&T 5.5 , and you should be ready to go! Also, you have to have the most recent 3.1 update on your iPhone, which you should already have by now, but if not, you are going to have to update that as well to get the MMS working on your iPhone.
Here is a video from the guys over on cnet that will show you just how easy it is to use MMS on your iPhone!
Enjoy

iPhone users out there are getting a very exciting present today… an upgrade to version 3.0. I have been waiting on this one, and as of around 1 PM EST you could get the new 3.0 version iPhone software.
The new software should address some of the major problems that iPhone users have had with the popular cell phones. Cut, Copy and Paste will now be available, and you will find that your landscape keypad will be working with programs that they previously did not, such as mail… which will be nice.
It will have MMS ability to send photos and videos, but that will not be available by AT&T until later in the summer.
There should also be come changes to its Bluetooth, and provides Bluetooth Stereo.
I have my iPhone sync’ing right now with the new iPhone version 3.0, and I will see what improvements really stand out for me. What about you? What do you think is the coolest thing with the new iPhone version 3. software?

I must admit I am still learning my way around my iPhone 3G, and still have yet to scratch the surface on what this baby can really do, but I did manage to get a fantastic iPhone app for it earlier this week… Pandora’s streaming radio app.
I just love this application! It’s a free app, and it works just perfectly. Download the app, run a search on any of your favorite bands of tunes, and instantly get yourself a radio station set up to stream you music within that genre.
According to Pandora’s website they have over a half million songs cataloged, and Im sure that number is constantly on the rise.
I ran a search for a Phish tune, and then used that search to build a station, and it successfully pulls music from all my favorite bands.
The only downside that I have seen so far, is that you can’t listen to your Pandora station while you you move into other applications such as your calendar, email or whatever else you use on your phone. But that is fine.
For me, I just love that it beats have to download a bunch of songs to the iPod function!
What is your favorite iPhone application? Share what you use the most!

There have been several rumors floating around over the past couple of months over the next generation iPhone, and recently a lot of attention has been placed on the upcoming WWDC Keynote on June 9th.
Well, according to Gizmodo, they have a source that is “very, very close” to the iPhone launch, and they have been informed that the new iPhone 3G will indeed get introduced on June 9, and then be available worldwide immediately following the launch. I hope they are right, as I am planning on moving back to America at the start of June, it will turn out to be perfect timing as I look to buy a new cell phone once I am home.
For more information on just what you can expect from the new iPhones, be sure to check out Engadget, which ran a nice article that laid out what their sources have told them about the second-gen iPhone.
