T-Mobile: Samsung to Nokia MMS - something resizes the pics smaller???

So, here's the situation: I use a Nokia E70 and my wife uses a Samsung T629 which has a 1.3MP camera. We use T-Mobile and have unlimited MMS (amongst other things). When she sends me pictures they arrive roughly 150x150 but the camera on her phone is capturing them at around 1248x960. I even double checked her phone's settings to assure it was set at the highest resolution which it is. I don't see any settings on the E70 that would limit the resolution of incoming MMS messages so I'm down to T-Mobile. I figured since we get unlimited MMS they probably limit the file size of the pics and resize photos. I can't find anything stating that this is the case though. According to what I find online it states that T-Mobile does NOT resize the pics but I'm not sure what else would be causing this.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Reading through the T-Mobile site I was finally able to find this:

"NOTE: All images will be resized to 160x120 pixels if they are larger."

Wonderful.
