Question
I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 by Sprint & I am unable to send & receive MMS - when i go to options it doesnt even list MMS on there...I have the blackberry data plan - so i am uncertain on how to get this to work.

Answer
If you have a BlackBerry data plan (i.e., you purchased the device from Sprint with the appropriate plans), then to send an MMS, you go into your Messages icon, click on the Menu button (the one that looks like the BlackBerry log to the left of the trackball), scroll down to Compose MMS and you should be able to send an MMS. Let me know if this works for you. When you receive an MMS, it comes into your Messages inbox. I hope this helps. Thanks. DebiN
