Messaging, Internet, and Instant Messenger
This section outlines how to send text messages (SMS) and
multimedia messages (MMS) using the Unified Composer. This
section also describes Instant Messaging (IM), and E-mail
Messages.
Messaging
In Messaging, you can create, send, receive, view, edit, and
organize:
• Text messages (SMS)
• Multimedia message (MMS)
• E-mail messages
To open Messaging
On the Home screen, press the Start soft key and select
Messaging.
Working with SMS or MMS Messages
You can write an SMS message of up to 160 characters. When
you enter more than 160 characters, your phone handles the
message as a multi-part message.
You can also send or receive multimedia messages (MMS). In
addition to the familiar text content of text messages, multimedia
messages can contain images, video clips, audio clips, and
combinations of these things in more than one page.
MMS also supports e-mail addressing, so that messages can be
sent from phone to e-mail and vice versa.
Note: Pictures, Sounds, and Video can be moved to the Storage Card to
eliminate device overload.
