I think you're right, it looks like a standardised MMS notification 
(that would be sent as a text message to tell the phone where to get
an image). I found a spec here:

http://www.activexperts.com/xmstoolkit/sms/mmsnotification/

That spec says that the URL was correct as I decoded. This message had
a relative expiry time that meant it expired 72 hours after being sent, 
I guess it has expired now.

Cheers,
