MMS = Data (Billing ?)

I've been monitoring my account on Tmobile.com. When I look up my current usage it'll break down everything (wifi, m2m, etc). Under the Messaging Tabs it'll also give you a historical breakdown of sent/received messages with their time. When I look at the list I see all my messages except for the picture one I've sent and received. Say i sent a sms at 10:11am then a picture at 10:12 then a sms at 10:13am. The picture message at 10:12 doesn't show up nor does a message being sent at that time. The one thing I do see go up is my data usage. I was wondering if T-mobile was like sprint and as far as their smart/pda phones they couldn't distinguish between a picture message (mms) and data. I was wondering if anyone else's tmobile.com layout was like that?

My plan:
Blackberry and Minutes
$59.99
1000 anytime
Unlimited BB data/email/im usage
Unlimited SMS (suppose to be $.15 a mms)
 
As far as I know, it's supposed to be under your SMS/MMS package. Why it is going under your Data, I have no clue. Did you send it on a UMA network?

It shows me how many msgs I've used, but in the time below it only shows the number and time for incoming/outgoing sms, not mms.

hmmm I've been sending picture messages for the past few days. I know I've sent about 15 and I dont' have that "Picture Messages" line. maybe because I just set up my account 2 weeks ago. But I did call into CS and asked if he could see my MMS usage and the rep told me he didn't see any usage so far.
 
I'm not sure... The plan I have according to Tmo is a data plan with minutes instead of a voice plan with data added. That's what the CS told me on the phone.

Rate plan is "Blackberry Minutes and Mail"
$59.99
