[Just1Spark]

Ok, after trying to get some chinese SonyC905's to send MMS, ive given up.

So now, I want to get a waterproof smart phone. Ive been looking at many of the chinese ones, (similar to the caterpillar I think). This is the one im wanting. www.banggood.com/NO_1-X1-5-inch-MTK6582-1_3GHz-Waterproof-Quad-core-Smartphone-p-968955.html

My question is, will it also have problems with MMS messaging?

I have an att basic plan. unlimited text, talk, and pay per use internet browsing.

I dont want a smart phone plan.

Will i be able to get one of these quad core smart phones to work for me?

This phone wasn't intended for use in North America, it's only got the 850MHz US 3G band. 2G GSM it should be OK, it's quad band. Bare in mind ATT might be starting to turn-off and decommission their 2G GSM networks...

Ok. Thanks for the quick reply.
