Text Message Storage Capacity.
All text messages that you receive are saved in your handset memory
or your SIM Card memory.
• Memory capacity is limited to 18 messages, so in most
cases you should delete your messages as soon as you read
them (see p. 31).
• If your memory is full, the ENVELOPE symbol on your
handset display will begin blinking. Any new messages will
be stored by Omnipoint up to 14 days and sent to your
handset once you have deleted messages to make room for
more.
(Refer to your User’s Manual for more details on message storage in
your handset or SIM Card memory.)

created or changed by you.
