About SMS text messages
With an SMS phone number, you can send and receive SMS text messages. An SMS phone number is a phone number that your wireless
service provider sets up for SMS text messaging.
You can send SMS text messages to contacts who have SMS phone numbers. You can also forward SMS text messages as PIN or email
messages.

The My Number field displays your phone number. If your wireless service provider has set up your BlackBerry® device for SMS text
messaging, this number is also your SMS phone number.
