25. Using Area Information

This feature may not be available on all net-
works. In addition, a special subscription may
be required to use the service.

The ordinary Short Message Service can be
said to be a personal service, with messages
specifically and exclusively directed to you. The
Area Information (AI) is another, impersonal,
type of Short Message which is sent to all
subscribers in a certain cell of a network at the
same time.

The AI is displayed immediately, unless you are
engaged in a call. The information may be a
local road report or a local taxi phone number.
Each type of message is identified by a 3-digit
code. At present, the following message types
exist:
