Using SMS Text Messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless phone
number to send instant text messages from your PCS Vision Phone
to their messaging-ready phone—and they can send messages to
you. When you receive a new message, you’ll automatically be
notified with a one-way text message.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of preset
messages, such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way,” that make
composing messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own
preset messages (up to 100 characters) from your PCS Vision Phone
or at
www.sprintpcs.com.
