Using SMS Text Messaging

With SMS Text Messaging, you can use other people’s wireless phone numbers to send instant text messages from your phone to their messaging-ready phones – and they can send messages to you. When you receive a new message, it will automatically be displayed on your phone’s screen.

In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of preset messages, such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way,” that makes composing messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own preset messages (up to 128 characters) from your phone.
