16 Instant messaging (IM)

Take text messaging to the next level by experiencing instant messaging in a wireless environment. Engage in instant messaging (IM) with friends and family, regardless of the mobile system or platform (like the Internet) they are using, as long as you all use

the same IM service. Check with your wireless service provider for availability.

Before you can start using IM on your phone, you must first subscribe to your wireless service provider’s text messaging service. While only SMS capability is required to use the service, GPRS improves the speed of instant messaging. You must also register with the IM service you want to use. See “IM service provider icons” on page 84 for more information.

Note: Depending on both your IM service provider and your wireless service provider, you may not have access to all of the features described in this guide.

•IM SERVICE PROVIDER ICONS

Since each IM service has its own display text and icons associated with it, the display text and icons on your phone may appear differently for each IM service provider. If you have any questions about the differences in the various IM service providers’ display text and icons, contact your wireless service provider for more information. The following table shows examples of IM icons and their descriptions:
