I'm baffled that you aren't taking more advantage of your current staus as the only supplier for MMS capabilities for the iPhone and get a FW 2.x out real fast.

As a new Iphone 3G user, and someone who knows nothing about programming or the time/complications of making software work on the new 2.0 / 2.0.1 software platforms all i can say is that i would happily pay swirly to buy a copy of swirly MMS for the new iphone. I understand the complications with app store. Is there any chance the dev team, could be a bit more enlightening in regards to their plans for the future of swirly? are you going to bring it to 2.0? i know at least 50 people who would happily pay $20 + through paypal to buy this software. surely there are THOUSANDS of people if not millions all over the world who would also do the same.... do the math..... surely thats enough to get 2.0 ready quickly?

I believe the release for fw 2.0 is not a coding issue anymore, otherwise we would not see two really minor fixes (1.1.3,1.1.4) for the old phones. Swirly has a problem, as it released the version 1 without apple, but needs the apple store for the new phones to really pass it to the majority of users. As apple is developing an MMS application with another company, they probably just wait to give Swirly the permission until their product is ready too. So the only chance to see a new fw 2.0 version of Swirly would be on Cydia or installer, but this would definitely upset Apple.

hahaha that makes me laugh... someone should upset apple, seriously will teach em a lession for releasing a phone with bluetooth and mms features.... i mean i can understand with DRM issues that they dont want users being able to share music via bluetooth, but i dont think ill ever understand them leaving mms out... not everyone is into emails... its fine for me as some of my friend have iphones or blackberrys so we email stuff all the time, but a lot of people i know dont know how to use email on their phone or are just not interested. i think swirly should just bring it out on cydia and let us have mms back :) :P

First, the maintenance releases of 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 came out because not everyone is going to bother with 2.0, and there is still an existing userbase that needs to be supported...

The release for fw 2.0 is only a coding issue and the team is working on it, it will see it's release in Cydia/Installer ... Apple won't be anymore upset than they were about the earlier releases.. I doubt apple would be working with on MMS with another company, why would they need to? they have their own developers .. if they wanted MMS capabilities then they would have included them.. my guess is that AT&T had a big part in that decision, not Apple ..I see no reason Apple would not want to include it unless they just figured E-Mail made more sense ..

Besides... writing these third party apps is perfectly legal, jailbreaking your phone is perfectly legal, unlocking it is perfectly legal .. the only people Apple is probably upset with is the dev team for popping the security to make it possible :) they probably had no reason to mind before, but now they have a reason to mind because third party apps don't come from their store..
