OK then next question, what about iPhone apps like WhatsApp and Messagey, does anyone know if they work?

I think what you are referring to is multimedia message system or MMS. It does not look like speakout supports MMS.

Thanks for the reply. I'm using an iPhone 3G and was trying to use the built in ability of the SMS program to send images via text. This worked on Fido previously but may have transmitted over the Edge network. If I activate the data plan do you think it would work? My concern is because I have a 3G phone it may or may not work with data.

Maybe 160 character ansi art? 🙂 No, you would need a data plan, and you probably need a phone that has a decent enough email program that can send attachments. I have not been able to directly upload pictures with speakout data, but hopefully, someone else in this forum has. Maybe they even used a speakout phone to do it.

Is it possible to send images via text message or would this require the data plan?
