■ Instant messaging

Instant messaging (IM) is a way to send short, simple text messages to friends
and family, regardless of the mobile system or platform they use (like the Internet),
as long as they all use the same instant messaging (IM) service. Check with Cingular
for availability.
Before you can use IM, you must subscribe to the service. To check the availability
and costs and to subscribe to the service, contact your network operator or IM
service provider, from whom you also receive your unique ID, password, and settings.
Note: Depending on both your IM service provider and your wireless
service provider, you may not have access to all of the features described
in this guide.
Depending on the network, the active IM conversation may consume the phone
battery faster, and you may need to connect the phone to a charger.

Register with an IM service

Before you can use IM, you must register with an IM service to obtain a user name
and password. You can obtain a user name and password by registering over the
Internet (using your computer) with the IM service provider you have selected.
