■ Instant messaging
Instant messaging (IM) (network
service) is a way to send short,
simple text messages to online users,
delivered over TCP/IP protocols.
Before you can use instant
messaging, you must subscribe to
the service. To check the availability
and costs, and to subscribe to the
service, contact your network
operator or service provider, from
whom you also receive your unique
ID, password, and settings.
To set the required settings for the
instant messaging service, see
Connection settings in "Access the
instant messaging menu", on
page 23. The icons and texts on the
display may vary, depending on the
instant messaging service.
While you are connected to the
instant messaging service, you can
use the other functions of the phone,
and the instant messaging
conversation remains active in the
background. Depending on the
network, the active instant
messaging conversation may
consume the phone battery faster,
and you may need to connect the
phone to a charger.
