All messaging features are Network Services. If you have subscribed
to a message service, you can send and receive messages to compatible phones
that are also subscribed to a message service. You can also send and receive picture
messages, multimedia messages, and e-mail to compatible phones if supported by
your network. See "Text entry" on page 20 for more information.
Note: When your phone is dedicated to a call in progress, a Java application
(such as a game), or an active browser connection, then the phone cannot
receive multimedia messages.

• LINKED MESSAGES

Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the normal 160-character
limit. If your message exceeds 160 characters, it will be sent as a series of two or
more messages. In the navigation bar, you can see the message length indicator
counting backwards from 160. For example, 10 (2) means that you can still add 10
characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
Using special (Unicode) characters, such as ë, â, á, ì, takes up more space. If there
are special characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message
length correctly. Before the message is sent, the phone tells you if the message
exceeds the maximum length allowed for one message. You can cancel sending by
pressing Cancel or you can save the message in the inbox.
While receiving linked messages, you can start reading the first part before the
phone has received the entire message. While viewing a linked message, you can
start reading the first part before the phone has received the entire message. While
viewing the message, you may see *some text missing* on the display. This is normal,
and the message content will be updated as soon as the missing sequence arrives.
If the memory is full, you may have to delete a message from your inbox or outbox
before your phone can update the missing text. See "Delete messages" on page 33
for more information.
• BEFORE YOU CAN SEND AND RECEIVE
MESSAGES
You will need the following to send and receive messages:
• A messaging service through your service provider
• A message center number, which must be saved to your phone (if your service
provider has not done so already). See "Save your message center number" on
page 31.
