Abstract With the rapid development of mobile internet recent years, multimedia message service, one of the main applications of mobile internet has become one popular communication way in our daily life. Which factors would affect the end-users adoption of MMS? And is there any difference between man or female when making the decision of MMS use? Is age a moderator of MMS use decision ?

MMS has become one of the main communication in our daily life. • The users number is increase rapidly(27.3% increase in China in 2009)and the market is still huge. • In the competitive market, it’s more and more important for MMS providers to understand their target customers’ need .And they can provide better services to the customers. • So, it’s necessary to study the influence factors of the MMS end-users’ intention to use.

Three models stand out as the most widely applied -TAM ,the technology acceptance model ,including perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. -TRA the theory of reasoned action. A model predicts behavioral intention(attitude toward to behavior and subjective norm). -TPB. the theory of planned behavior. It is added another factor, perceived behavioral control to the TRA.

Some of the related papers about mobile service study based on extended TAM: • Margherita Pagani (2004) added the price and enjoyment to the TAM, and The results show that perceived usefulness, ease of use, price, and speed of use are the most important determinants of adoption of multimedia mobile services. • Per E. Pedersen(2007) extend the TAM with subjective norm and behavioral control into a decomposed TPB(subjective norm and behavioral control). • Imsook Ha etc(2007) extended TAM to include an emotion variable and measured the moderating effects of gender, age, and prior experience to examine mobile game adoption. The results revealed that the effect of perceived enjoyment was very important ,and age can be key moderator of game acceptance. Literature review
