Does MMS use GPRS?
The new mult-media-messaging services being launched by many GSM operators use GPRS to transmit the messages between users. The service does not use the standard GPRS billing and you will not need a GPRS subscription to use it (but you will need a compatible phone). The service is charged per MMS to you phone bill. If you transmit the equivalent message over GPRS (not using the MMS service e.g. messaging or Email) it will usually be much cheaper.
