Free MMS trials are being offered by many network
operators to increase the usage by mobile phone users of

GSM MMS (multimedia messaging service) allows users to send and
receive messages containing multimedia content (including images, video, audio and

an important step in allowing companies other than GSM network
operators to make money out of the service.
