Instant messaging
Take text messaging to the next level by experiencing instant messaging (IM)
in a wireless environment. Engage in instant messaging with friends and family,
regardless of the mobile system or platform they are using (like the Internet),
as long as you all use the same IM service. Check with your wireless service
provider for availability.
Before you can start using IM on your phone, you must first subscribe to your
wireless service provider’s text messaging service. GPRS network service is required
to use instant messaging. You must also register with the IM service you want to
use. See “Register with an IM service” on page 33 for more information.
Note: Depending on both your IM service provider and your wireless
service provider, you may not have access to all of the features
described in this guide.
