Just a quick tip for anyone updating their phones today to include mms support. If you hook your phone up to itunes you should see the screen below. Download and install the update which takes only seconds. I then was looking under my text messages and I could not see the picture button. Don't panic, all you need to do is reboot the phone. After a quick reboot your mms will be enabled and you can join the millions of people today that will probably overload the network!
