5. Messaging

You can use mobile messages to keep in touch with friends, family,
and business associates by using the short message service (SMS), which is
a network service. Not all messaging features are available in all wireless networks.
Contact your service provider for availability and subscription information.
When sending messages, your phone may display the words Message sent.
This is an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the
message center number programmed into your device. This is not an indication
that the message has been received at the intended destination. For more details
about messaging services, check with your service provider.

■ Text messages

Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for
a single message. Longer messages are sent as a series of two or more messages.
Your service provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or other
marks and characters from some language options, such as Chinese, take up more
space, which limits the number of characters that can be sent in a single message.
A message length indicator appears at the top of the phone display. This indicator
allows you to see how many characters remain in the message as you are entering
text. For example, 673/2 means that there are 673 characters left and that the
message will be sent as a series of two messages.
You can use predefined templates to help you write text messages. Before you
can send any text or e-mail messages, you need to configure the message
settings. See "Message settings," p. 38.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service,
contact your service provider.
Text entry
To enter text while writing messages, use traditional or predictive text input.
When using traditional text input, press a number key, 1 to 9, repeatedly until
the character you want is displayed. In predictive text input you can enter a letter
with a single keypress.
When you write text, appears at the top left of the display, which indicates
predictive text input, and is displayed, which indicates traditional text input.
