they are still in denial that it won't work.

Can't get around how the provider has their systems set up. They have it like that for a reason...$$$$

Lightbulb Idea.

It seems there may be a way to send another "normal" phone a MMS from the Q.

I can't confirm if this works since I don't have access to a standard phone, and it's not the most elegant method.

I did some playing around, (i.e. mostly a bit of searching on Google) and I'm sure everyone knows that the XXXXXXXXXX@messaging.sprintpcs.com e-mail address will send a test message to a cell phone on the Sprint network. It won't send pics though.

I found this address (XXXXXXXXXX@pm.sprint.com) which does. :D
The only way I was able to test this was by using my computer and sending an e-mail to the mentioned address and my Q recieved it as it usually receives an MMS. A text message telling me that I have "new Picture Mail!".

It should go without saying that the "X"'s are filler for a phone number.

So to clarify, given the Q's e-mail prowess, it looks like it should be possible to send an e-mail to the pm.sprint.com address from the Q and have it recieved as an MMS.

Anyone able to test this with a standard phone?

it will be recieved as a picture mail on a sprint nonsmartphone not as a txt. Not quite a MMS, but that is the workaround. You can still send a pic to the messaging address, it will be redirected to the picture mail.

yeah.... i have been doing this also.....what i need is the incomer server and outgoing server for @pm.sprint.com Once we have that we can send photos from the Q to whatever carrier and they can just reply to that message, instead on whatever email is set up on your Q. Anybody got a clue?

no those are servers for @sprintpcs.com

The ping could not find host also.

Once we find the incoming and outgoing servers, we should be able to send photos, to others and when they reply in comes as a text message.
