Using SMS Text Messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless
phone number to send instant text messages from your
Sprint PCS Phone to their messaging-ready phone – and they
can send messages to you. When you receive a new message,
it will automatically display on your phone’s screen. (See
"Displaying Pop-up Messages" on page 51.)
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 160 characters) from your
Sprint PCS Phone or at
www.sprint.com.
