Google says that mobile uploads to YouTube have increased by 400% just in a week, thanks to iPhone 3GS’ technology. Looks like mostly iPhone 3GS users are also the big fans of the video-sharing site.

…here we are with a truly integrated MMS experience courtesy of the all-powerful hacking community.

A member of Hacking0sh forum revealed a tip on how MMS on 2G (OS 3.0) with default SMS/MMS app:

• For install copy mms2g.deb to iphone in folder, for example /var/root
• Then in same folder (/var/root) in terminal input: dpkg -i mms2g.deb
