Messages
Your phone is able to send and receive text messages to
compatible phones and other devices. If a text message
exceeds 160 characters, it is broken up and delivered in
separate messages, which will incur additional cost. There
are various text entry modes available when using your
phone, and each is described below.
Available memory is shared between all messages. You can
store up to 100 incoming and 100 outgoing messages. The
exact number that you can store is dependent upon
message length.
Text entry modes
You can compose text messages composed of alphabetical
characters, symbols, and numbers. Each method of
character entry (symbol, number, etc.) is called a text entry
mode. There are four such entry modes as indicated in the
following table:
