• Some wireless service providers have web pages on which
anyone can enter a message and direct it to your phone
number. In this case, anyone who has access to the Internet
can send you a message, provided he or she knows your
phone number and can locate the appropriate web page.
• Some service providers allow SMS messages to be sent
through Internet e-mail applications. Your phone number
is then used as an e-mail address (example:
[email protected]).
• Some products, such as the AirCard 555, have software
that allows you to send messages to other subscribers,
using their phone numbers to direct the message.
The Mobile Messenger… option in the Tools menu allows you to
read, create and send SMS messages.
Reading SMS Messages: The Inbox
Incoming messages are stored in the Inbox until you delete
them or until they expire (depending on your settings in the

urgent.
To read a message(s):
1. Tap (Pocket PCs) or double tap (Handheld PCs) the SMS

Tools > Mobile Messenger… to display the
