14.4 Instant Messaging
Instant Messaging (IM) delivers all of the features of an online instant
messenger that you often use on your computer. With Instant Messaging
enabled on your device, you are not only able to stay in touch with friends
via phone conversations, but you can also communicate by IM, just as you
would do from your computer. With access to the most popular Internet IM
services, such as AOL®, Windows Live™, and Yahoo!®, the IM client helps you
stay connected at all times, no matter where you are.
With Instant Messaging you can do the following:
• Send and receive instant messages.
• View notifications and alerts.
• Download and update contact list.
• Add, remove and block contacts.
• Manage your presence and contact status information.
• Use predefined text and smileys.
• Archive conversations and access message history.
Before you can use Instant Messaging, your device must be connected to
the Internet. For information about setting up an Internet connection, see
“Ways of Connecting to the Internet” in Chapter 10.
