Using Text SMS Messaging

With Text SMS Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless phone number to send instant text messages from your Sprint PCS Phone to their messaging-ready phone – 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, Text SMS Messaging includes a variety of preset messages, such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way,” that make composing messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own preset messages (up to 160 characters) from your Sprint PCS Phone or at www.sprint.com.
