Sending text and multimedia messages
Send short text messages (SMS) and multimedia messages (MMS) 
to other mobile phones. If you exceed the limit on the number of 
characters for a single text message, your text message will be 
delivered as one but will be billed as more than one message. These 
are called concatenated messages.
Multimedia messages can contain text and a picture, a recorded voice, 
an audio or video file, a picture slideshow, contact card (vCard), or 
appointment (vCalendar).
The Messages application automatically converts a text message into 
a multimedia message when you enter an email address in the To 
field, add a message subject, attach an item, or compose a very long 
message.
Sending a text message
Press HOME   , and then tap   > Messages.
On the All messages screen, tap New message. The Compose 
screen opens.
Fill in one or more recipients. You can:
Enter phone numbers directly in the To field. If you’re sending 
the message to several phone numbers, separate the phone 
numbers with a comma. 
As you enter information, any matching phone numbers from 
your contacts list are displayed. Tap a match to enter that 
number or address directly.
Tap the   icon, and then select the phone numbers of the 
contacts to whom you want to send the message. You can 
also select contact groups as recipients.  
When you have selected all the message recipients, tap Done.
