Send messages
In My Friends, you can exchange private messages
with players in your Friends List. If your Friend is
currently logged in to the N-Gage service, the Friend
can respond to your message and you can chat one-
on-one, similar to instant messaging.
To view new messages received from an N-Gage
Friend, scroll to the friend on your Friends list, and
select Options > View Message. Read messages
are deleted automatically when you exit N-Gage.
To view Game recommendations, select Options >
View Recommendation. Game recommendations
are deleted automatically a week after you receive
them.
To send a message to a N-Gage Friend, scroll to the

Message is 115 characters. To send the message,
select Submit.
You need a GPRS, 3G, or wireless LAN connection to
be able to use the messaging feature. Data transfer
charges may apply. For more information, contact
your mobile service provider.
