I... I just don't get it. So you can send 30 "full quality" photos at once? Is there anyone who's really thinking, "you know what I need right now? The ability to send my friends higher resolution photos in parallel!"

I can already MMS high res photos to groups at a time. I can already upload high res photos to Facebook, email them out at very high res, and transfer them to my computer at original quality. The bandwidth limits in their plan levels are silly considering they're all way over my 3G bandwidth cap and I can already send original quality photos over wifi.

I hope that this is just a first iteration and we'll be seeing further products and services from these guys soon.

Having taken a small spin of the app, I'm inclined to agree. A few things I noticed:

- Locational services permission required. They inform you that it's not to track your location, but to track the location of the photos you send so that information can be included.

- Unable to preview photos I'm queueing up for sending. When you're selecting photos to send, you're shown the grid view for whatever photo collection you have, and tap on ones you wish to send - but there's no obvious option to view the photo in a full view for the purpose of making sure I'm sending the right one.

Like you say there are already a wealth of photo sharing options that don't create another layer of abstraction, at least in my limited usage and experience. IMO the ability to share multiple photos doesn't warrant a separate app but a service that photo sharing applications should provide given the demand.

One thing that you can't do right now is send original quality videos. This could be useful for uploading large videos, but it seems KickSend still tries (like every other app out there) to compress the video which takes FOREVER and kills your battery if you have a 10 minute long video.
