Apple and AT&T have been sued this week in Louisiana over alleged misrepresentation of MMS availability on the iPhone.
The class action suit says, according to TGDaily, that "both companies aggressively promoted the MMS features of iPhone OS 3.0 and the iPhone 3GS using advertising on TV, radio, newspapers, direct mailers, and on the Internet," although it was not really available.
There are so far over 10,000 people represented by the suit.
AT&T is added in the suit because plaintiffs allege that the carrier does not have cell towers that support MMS. As proof they point to the WWDC 2009 keynote where an Apple created slide does not show AT&T as a vendor that supports MMS.
It will be interesting to see where the suit goes, given that AT&T has noted that MMS support will be coming "by late summer."
