At&T Announces MMS, Mum on Tethering

AT&T has announced that MMS is coming on Sept. 25 (via MacWorld):

According to AT&T’s press release, a software update will enable MMS for iPhone 3G and 3GS customers (original iPhone owners are, unfortunately, out of luck with the MMS feature). Besides finally offering a date, AT&T is also clearly trying to quell the seething masses and complaints abou t overpriced, sub-par service that have become almost deafening. The company did not offer any further information about when it might offer tethering functionality for the iPhone, another feature that Apple announced in the iPhone 3.0 software update.

Personally, I’m more interested in tethering. I’m also interested in what another carrier could do for the iPhone. More interested in tethering, but my disdain for AT&T grows daily.
