At the risk of hijacking this thread (which I am willing to, given that jgood53 has not been back and I assume his question has been answered).
Ding ding ding ding. :thumbup:
I find language to be interesting. While this response suggests to me that some view the meaning of the question as obvious, compare and contrast the following two questions:
q1: I am wondering if there is a way to receive pictures without turning Mobil data on
q2: I am wondering if there is a way to receive pictures without turning Mobil data on every time
The first question would be one, in my mind, that suggests the inquirer fails to understand the general relationship between pictures and data, which apparently is the assumed point of the OP's question. The second question (the actual OP question) is identical to the first but with the addition of two words at the end. These two words suggests additional possibilities of inquisition, including "why is my mobil data being turned off regularly", or "is there a way to recieve picture messages and needing to turn on mobile data SOME OF THE TIME, such as once at the beginning of each day.
I find language to often times be ambiquous and baffling. I find mostly that fewer words is better than more words. When I find extra words in a question such as this, I tend to ascribe additional meaning and purpose to those words rather than assume them to be superfluous and redundant.
But, I can be a bit anal at times.
