Two weeks ago we heard that MMS would be coming to the iPhone - on AT&T - on September 25th. Well, the good news is that it has apparently been rolling out to a few customers already. There's not much left to say, but it's been spotted almost two weeks earlier than the scheduled date.

After the iPhone 3GS hit both Rogers and Fido on June 19th it quickly went out of stock, thanks to the overwhelming Canadian demand. Well, the iPhone 3GS seems to now be in stock, so expect to dish out $199.99 CAD on a 3-year contract for the 16GB iPhone 3GS and $299.99 CAD on a 3-year contract for the 32GB iPhone 3GS. If you live in Canada, you better buy one quick before the rest of the country gets one. Check it out here.

Update: Nevermind, it looks like it's out of stock again. I'll keep checking back to see if it comes up again.

According to the latest rumour, Apple will be launching iPhone OS 3.1 next week. This is heating up the rumour mill since Apple's event is next week. The good thing about iPhone OS 3.1 is the fact that it could bring MMS and Bluetooth file-sharing to the iPhone! Finally! We'll just have to see what happens next week.

Update: According to Engadget Mobile, it's now official! However, it won't be coming next week. AT&T has just announced that MMS support will be coming on September 25th. Unfortunately, tethering will coming "in the future."

Yes, these are only semi-revealed details because they haven't been confirmed yet. The Office 2007 support and the whole PictBridge thing is true though - at the very least. At launch, the Palm Pre will actually not be supporting video recording capabilities so that is fairly disappointing. Hopefully, it will be a software update shortly after launch because that's a pretty neat feature to have - and should be implemented at launch, in my opinion. Some unconfirmed Palm Pre details are listed below, special thanks to Gizmodo:


•No video recording at launch, though they seem to think such a thing will be added via update. (We knew this already)
•MMS support is confirmed
•They imply that Office 2007 documents work fine on Pre, though they don't specify if it's read-only
•Custom ringtones are a go, as are ringback tones
•When in USB mode, all calls will be automatically routed to voicemail.
•IM Services: Google Talk and AIM at launch.
•The color for calendar events can be chosen manually on the Pre, or sync'ed with the colors you've got set up in Exchange
•Cookies can be disabled in the browser
•No pictbridge profile yet, so no wireless photo printing.
