Using SMS Text Messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can use other people’s wireless phone
numbers to send instant text messages from your phone to their
messaging-ready phones – and they can send messages to you. When you
receive a new message, it will automatically be displayed on your phone’s
screen.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of preset messages,
such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way,” that makes composing
messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own preset
messages (up to 160 characters) from your phone.
