About Messaging

Your Treo™ Pro smartphone by Palm offers a few ways for you to send and receive messages:

Sprint Messaging: Enables you to use the Messaging application to exchange brief text messages and multimedia messages with other wireless devices and email addresses that support these forms of messaging.

IM: Enables you to exchange instant messages (IMs) with friends and colleagues who use MSN, Yahoo, and America Online instant messages.

These messaging services may not be included in your service plan and may incur extra charges. If you are not sure about your service plan, consult Sprint.

Before You Begin

Make sure your phone is on and that you’re inside a coverage area before you try to send or receive messages.

This chapter describes the various messaging options and walks you through setting them up, so that you can use your Treo Pro smartphone to send and receive messages.
