I have the same questions. I know before the merger you could not ge
any multi media messages from Sprint subscribers. I wonder does it wor
now. I have a sexxy lil mama I met on Match Mobile and she wants to sen
me some more pics of her. But to my knowlwdge (the little that i have s
do NOT quote me on this) you can only send multi media to other Nexte
customers.

When you say "text messaging", are the phones addressing each other
just by the number, or by the internet address?

If your Nextel number is 234-567-8901, anyone can send email from a
computer to your phone,  sent to the address
2345678901@messaging.nextel.com. Assuming you have text messaging
enabled on your line, if you send a text message from your nextel to
the computer. When you do that, your return address is similar:
twoway.2345678901@messaging.nextel.com.

Starting on the phone, if you send a picture with the text message to
your computer, it ends up as a JPG image attachment on the email. From
the computer, if you attach a JPG image, the Nextel phone will receive
it properly. (That lets people find really insulting pictures for
their contact lists, on the picture phones.)

There are similar schemes implemented by the other wireless companies
to do text messaing / email interoperability.  For Verizon, you use
the format 2345678901@vtext.com.

I suggest you send a text message, with an image, from your Nextel
phone to the destination Verizon number with the 2345678901@vtext.com
format. I don't know if Verizon treats an email with a JPG attachment
the same as Nextel would, but it's worth a try.
