The easiest way to find the nearest hotel, restaurant, etc, is to select “Find Nearest” and “Enter ZIP”. Once 
you’ve entered your Zip (starting point), you can select the type of business you are seeking (restaurant, gas 
station, etc).  Highlight your selection and press enter (center of large circular button).  Your results will 
appear. 

Google

  

A search engine that you can select if you want to visit other websites. 

Note:  

Many websites are not set up 

correctly for access using a mobile phone. If you have trouble viewing a site, the trouble is most likely with 
the format of the website and not your mobile phone’s browser.

   

Yahoo 

These

 

are direct links to commonly used e-mail providers, Yahoo and MSN.  You can access these sites via 

these links or by selecting “other email” under the Email menu option.

 

Usage History 

Keep track of the wireless data usage on your account through this helpful link. 

Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) 

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 cards and more…even if your Next 
Generation phone does not have a camera 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.
