Using the registry edit for the Verizon 6700. If i enable the wi-fi and phone using the registry edit....will I get charged for Kilobytes usage? cause im a little nervouse for the bill....also anyone run into any problem taking away the SMS bubble that says "message sent"...i've been able to get the message for double text message that comes after sending. Also anyone know if picture messages or video messages through MMS(verizon) is billed and pics/flixs or as Kilobytes sent?

thank you for the answers. I was sitting by cmoputer all afternoon waiting for a reply. The wi-fi hack i was worried about but am going to hit it up now. THe pics/flix i talked to a verizon contact and he said they are investigating it(currently they cahrge kilo's but are looking to poissibel take that away)....w/ the registry edit i dowloaded form the posts that were up.....I was able to get 1 of the "delivery noticficaitons" turned off. I guess I can live w/ the "message sent"...thanks for the help....

It's acutally not intentional for pix/flix to charge data. Currently there just isn't a way for the billing to seperate web use from messaging use. This never came up until the Treo got a camera and other billing fixes have had priority.
