Question
I followed the instructions on setup for the MMS.  The phone is working fine for everything but internet and MMS.  It says gprs not subscribed.  I can send regular SMS text.  I have AT&T service and I have the pay as you go internet service.  What is wrong?

Email will not work with any server that requires smtp authentication (which is pretty much all of them here)

There is no java in the browser. Forget it. There is also no java loader so there is no downloading java games. Copying them to the SD card won't work either. No java loader so the file will be unrecognized.

Wap services like gmail, yahoo email and wap based instant messagers work fine. Make sure you have a good unlimited feature so you do not incur overages from over using your new toy.
