■ Text messages (SMS)
Using the short message service (SMS) you can send and receive multipart messages.
Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for a
single message. Longer messages will be 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 like Chinese, take up more
space, which limits the number of characters that can be sent in a single message.
At the top of the display, you can see the message length indicator that tracks
the number of characters available.If there are special characters in your message,
the indicator may not show the message length correctly. Before the message is
sent, the phone will tell you if the message exceeds the maximum length allowed
for one message.
Note: When sending messages, your device may display Message sent. This is
an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the message
center number programmed into your device. This is not an indication that
the message has been received at the intended destination. For more details
about messaging services, check with your network operator.
To check SMS email service availability and to subscribe to the service, contact
your service provider.
