PLEASE FIX in the next OTA

[JayMonster]

You are absolutely right... *IF* it is millions of people wanting it, then most likely at some point they will have to consider and/or add in the functionality. But lets keep it where is belongs... this is not a "Droid" issue... it is Android issue... and in most advanced Smart Phones the case.

You are quite right that it is not a Motorola issue (though it could be a Verizon issue, much the same way that MMS was held out of the iPhone until at&t was "ready" for it to be released to the users), and if Google hears enough complaints about it, then I am sure it will be addressed.

Honestly, I don't care... it is not like I don't want it there... I am trying to explain why they may have made that choice. I encourage anybody that wants this added go over to the Android Group and start (or add) to a thread on this to address the issue. Just because it gets added doesn't mean I will have to use it for anything, so like I said, it doesn't hurt me, and I don't have a dog in this hunt.
