Sony Ericsson K800i Picture Messaging MMS configuration

I'm with O2, but bizarrely the O2 website cannot configure my phone. I had to reset my phone the other day and rather than hang on the 0870 premium rate number to get them to send the MMS config again I researched online how to do it myself. The O2 site even tells me the configuration is coming, and the PIN, but it never arrives!

Fortunately the sonyericsson.com/support site has this Picture messaging (MMS) page which can send through the configuration. Sending through the settings and applying them to my K800i created in my Settings->Messaging->MMS a new profile, "O2 WAP GPRS", containing:
Other useful Sony Ericsson pages, email setup, and internet settings. Related O2 technical info is HM2K site.

For such a proponent of Open Source and Open things...

Why are you using a closed-source phone of which you have no real control of what runs on it?

Do I smell double standards?
 
I have no real control over the software my DVD recorder, TV, Washing Machine, Telephone, Car, Camera and Mobile phone runs. I can't possibly convince vendors to open up everything. Do as I do, and watch projects like OpenMoko and buy one when you can afford it instead of a conventional phone if it has the features you need!
