Creating and sending SMS and MMS messages
Send short text messages (SMS) to other mobile phones. If you exceed the limit on the number of characters for a single text message, your text message will be delivered as one but will be billed as more than one message.
Multimedia messages, also known as MMS, can contain text and a picture, a recorded voice, an audio or video file, a picture slideshow, contact card (vCard), or appointment (vCalendar).
Note The Messages application automatically converts a text message into a multimedia message when you entered an email address in the To field, added a message subject, or attached an item.
