Messages
If you subscribe to a Short Message Service (SMS),
you may be able to receive alphanumeric
messages on your phone, just like a pager. Contact
your Service Provider for information about the
availability of messaging in your area.
You can save from 1225 to 6125 message
characters, depending on your phone model.
Your phone saves all incoming messages. When
message memory is full, each new incoming
message automatically replaces the oldest
unlocked message.
