Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) permits users to heighten the impact of their messages by adding rich sounds, pictures, and video clips. With MMS, those audio-visual messages can be sent to any digital device on the network, such as another mobile phone or an email address. SMS and MMS are just the protocols, however. To get them to actually work on a Java technology-capable mobile phone required the development of two Java Specification Requests through the Java Community Process (JCP) program: JSR 120 Wireless Messaging API (WMA) and JSR 205 WMA 2.0.
