POWERFUL MESSAGING AND CHAT

The T20e is capable of sending and receiving SMS messages, linked messages and it supports Enhanced Messaging Services (EMS). Also, mobile chat over SMS is supported.

•With the Short Message Service, a user can send text messages containing up to 160 charac- ters to and from GSM mobile stations (up to 70 characters using Chinese text)

•With the linked SMS, the user can link several SMS messages together to create a longer message (network-dependent service)

•With EMS, the T20e lets the user insert pictures and melodies, or ring tones, in outgoing messages. Also, the phone will display pictures and play melodies included in incoming messages (network-dependent service)

•The T20e makes it possible to chat with a second party using SMS. The chat is a series of short messages and corresponding replies between the two parties, similar to chat services provided on the Internet.

The T20e also lets you save often-used text messages as templates. You can save up to ten tem- plates consisting of up to twenty-five characters each in the phone's memory. The T20e also fea- tures an SMS counter allowing you to keep track of SMS messages that you have sent.

Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS)

Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) is a powerful enhancement of the SMS standard specified by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). It is supported by the major network opera- tors and mobile phone manufacturers. With it, mobile phone users can add life to SMS text mes- saging in the form of pictures and melodies. This gives the users new ways to express feelings, moods and personality in SMS messages.

Add life to messages to and from the T20e by inserting melodies.

Users can express feelings and personality by inserting pictures in messages.

As well as messaging, users will enjoy collecting and swapping pictures and ring signals and other melodies, downloading them from the Internet or editing them directly on the phone. See related documents listed under “Documents” on page 25. EMS is a network-dependent service.
