About SMS
You can transmit and receive long
messages (up to 755 characters) on
your phone. They are automatically
divided into concatenated SMS
messages (note higher charges).
About MMS
The
M
ultimedia
M
essage
S
ervice
(MMS) enables you to send texts, pic-
tures/videos and sounds in a combined
message to another mobile phone or
to an e-mail address. All elements of
an MMS message are merged into a
"
slide show
"
.
Depending on your phone's settings,
you will receive either the complete
message automatically or notification
that an MMS has been saved in the net-
work, giving sender and size details.
You may then download it to your
phone to read it.
Ask your service provider whether this
service is available. You may need to
register for this service separately.
An MMS is composed of slides, each
containing text/pictures or a
sound/video.
