SMS
A message can contain up to 160 characters. If you
create a longer message it will be sent as two or more
separate messages (concatenated), but will usually be
received as one message. If you add pictures, sounds and
other items to your message it becomes an EMS
(Enhanced Message Service) message.
You can answer an SMS with an MMS. You can also
receive a delivery report, see SMS on page 130.
MMS
Multimedia messages can include pictures, video clips,
animations and sound, organized like a slide
presentation with time-based control of the playback.
You can answer with an SMS.
If the sending or receiving of messages is interrupted,
the sending or receiving will resume when it is possible,
without losing information.
