I have no insight in how T-Moble does things, but I know that vendors 
pitch video/image compression stuff and you want to put it *before* it 
goes out the radio network (because that's the expensive resource), so 
that's why my guess it's doing the image-rewriting not in the end user 
box, but in a centrally placed device in their network.
