Nooby picture messaging question ;-(

Hi All,

I have a Nokia 3510i on T-Mob basic PAYG and just use it for contact
and the odd text.

Some friends have (apparently) sent me a pic of their new baby but I
don't know what to do to see it (normally I'd get that sort of thing
by e-mail but *they* aren't PC people ...)? ;-(

Could someone point me in the right direction (simple steps) in what
it would involve (and cost) for me to set up to receive picture
messages please (or if I have already received it, view it on the
phone or transfer it to the PC etc)?

All the best and thanks in advance ..

One phone call to T mobile, asking to enable mms should sort it. They'll
also send you the settings via a service message. If they sent you a picture
message, and your phone isn't enabled, then you should've received a text
message, with a web address link. Well that's the case on Vodafone anyway!

Hope this helps!

I'm not sure it will now ..?

So, if I get a picture on my phone and want to eMail it (on my PC)
I'll need to get it off the phone somehow (no IR or BT on this 3510i)
;-(

But if I leave them to arrive on the net I can easily download them
and do what I like with them .. or have I missed something?

All the best ..
