You must purchase or change your wireless service plan through your wireless service provider. Features such as text

A wireless service plan with phone or voice is required for you to use the Phone application and to send and receive text
messages. A wireless service plan with data is required for you to use the browser service and instant messaging
applications, and to send and receive email messages and PIN messages. A wireless service plan might affect which apps

and receive email messages, use third-party instant messaging applications, and use some browser options.
If you are an individual user, when you set up your email address or instant messaging account, you are associating it with
