Text messages
With the short message service (SMS) you can send and receive text messages,
and receive messages that can contain pictures (network service).
Before you can send any text or SMS e-mail messages, you must save your
message center number. See "Message settings," p. 46.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service,
contact your service provider. To save an e-mail address in Contacts, see
"Search for a contact," p. 51.
Your phone supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for a single
message. Longer messages are sent as a series of two or more messages. Your service
provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or other marks, and
characters from some language options, take up more space, limiting the number of
characters that can be sent in a single message.
An indicator at the top of the display shows the total number of characters
left and the number of messages needed for sending. For example, 673/2
means that there are 673 characters left and that the message is sent as a
series of two messages.
