6. Messaging

You can use mobile messages to keep in touch with friends, family,
and business associates by using the short message service (SMS),
which is a network service. Not all messaging features are available
in all wireless networks. Contact your service provider for
availability and subscription information.
When sending messages, your phone may display the words Message sent. This is
an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the message center
number programmed into your device. This is not an indication that the message
has been received at the intended destination. For more details about messaging
services, check with your service provider.

■ Text messages

Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for
a single message. Longer messages are sent as a series of two or more messages.
Your service provider may charge accordingly. A message length indicator appears
at the top of the phone display. This indicator allows you to see how many characters
are left in the message as you are entering text because it counts backwards from 913.
Characters that use accents or other marks, and characters from some language
options like Chinese, take up more space limiting the number of characters that
can be sent in a single message.
You can use predefined templates to help you write text messages. Before you can
send any text message, you need to save some message settings. See "Message
settings," p. 30.
