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.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of pre-
set messages (templates) that make composing messages
fast and easy. You can also customize your own pre-set
messages from your Sprint PCS Phone or at
www.sprintpcs.com.
