Using SMS Text Messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can use other people’s phone numbers to
send instant text messages from your phone to their messaging-ready
phones – and they can send messages to you.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of preset messages, such
as “Can’t talk right now. Send me a message.” that make composing
messages fast and easy. (See page 55for details.) You can also customize
your own preset messages (up to 50 characters) from your phone.
