Sending and receiving SMS

other than DoCoMo. See the DoCoMo

and roaming operators available.

To send an SMS to a user of a roaming operator,
follow the steps described in the table below.
Moreover, if a character contained in the
message is not supported by the mobile phone
of the recipient, the character may not be
properly displayed. See international service
guides such as "Mobile Phone User's Guide
[International Services]" for details.

subsequent monthly bills due to conditions of
your travel destination's roaming operator.

When using overseas, call charges in "Call data"
(p.432) include both incoming and outgoing calls.
However, the displayed call charges may be
different from the actual charges.

of the operator, another available operator will be
automatically searched and reset.
