The lack of Google Voice MMS, or multimedia messaging service, support by carriers has long been a turn-off: Some folks won’t use Google Voice for that sole reason. In North America it’s far less of a problem now as Google says it has worked with nearly 100 carriers to integrate and support MMS in Google Voice. That’s good news if you use Voice on a phone with service from AT&T, Sprint or T-Mobile, but Verizon still doesn’t support it. Bell Canada, Rogers and Telus are all on the list as well, but Google doesn’t offer its Voice service in Canada. Maybe that’s coming soon, too?
