Also known as "Picture Messaging" , MMS allows users to create and messages combining
text, sound and graphics. You can send and receive images, voice clips, music, greeting

embedded in it. It should be noted, however, that both the sender and the receiver
must have a Next Generation phone which is MMS capable.
There is a $.20 per message charge for each message sent.The data (kilobytes) used to
transfer of the MMS file will also be deducted from the data in your monthly Wireless
Internet plan. (If not a Wireless Internet subscriber, the sender will be charged $0.03 per
kilobyte for the data transfer.) When receiving an MMS message, the recipient pays
nothing; however, the data (kilobytes) used to transfer the file will be deducted from the
recipient's monthly Wireless Internet data plan balance.
Sending/Receiving MMS Messages
There are 3 ways to send an MMS message: between phones, PC to phone, and
phone to PC.
Note! To send MMS message between phones, both the sender and the receiver must have a
Next Generation phone. If the sender has a Next Generation phone and the receiver does not, the
receiver will receive a text (SMS) message with a unique URL (web address) that can be accessed
