Using the Messaging 
application
You can use the Messaging application to 
send and receive brief text messages 
(SMS) and multimedia messages (MMS). 
Before you use your Treo 750 to send or 
receive messages, consult AT&T for pricing 
and availability of text and multimedia 
messaging services.
Creating and sending a text message
Each text message can have up to 160 
characters. You can send a message of 
more than 160 characters, but the 
message will automatically be split into 
several messages. (If you send a text 
message to an email address, the email 
address is deducted from the 
160-character count.)
1 Press Start   and select Messaging.
2 Press New   (left action key).
3 Enter the recipient’s mobile phone 
number or email address. Here are 
some shortcuts:
• If the recipient’s name and mobile 
number are in your Contacts list, type 
the first few letters of the first or last 
name or simply enter the first initial, 
followed by a space, and then the last 
initial to find a name.
• Press Center   to view a list of 
recently used addresses, and select 
the recipient from the list. Select Add 
Recipient to add a recipient from your 
Contacts list.
DID
YOU
KNOW
?
You can send and receive text 
messages even while you are on a phone call. 
This is easiest when using a hands-free 
headset or the speakerphone.
