Making Messages
This section explains various messaging functions that
enable you to send video clips, pictures, and sounds as
well.
SMS (Short Message Service): This service enables
you to send text messages of up to 1024 characters to
other GSM mobile users. You can send or receive the
messages even if you are talking on the handset, and can
also use text templates to help you compose messages.
MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service): Your handset is
already enabled to deal with the Multimedia Messaging
Service (MMS). You can send messages with graphical
images, photographs, sounds, animations or video clips
attached, and receive WAP alerts.
E-Mail: This function enables you to use E-mail
messaging. This function enables you to directly access
the E-mail messaging service for your PC internet
provider. Before using the function, you have to make
some settings with the handset. For information on how to
set up your E-mail function, refer to “Settings for the
Messages” on page 11-76.
The following steps show you how to make and send
messages.
1 Press B.
The main menu appears.
2 Press a, b, c or d to highlight “Messages”
and press B.
The “Messages” menu appears.
3 Press a or b to highlight “SMS,” “MMS,” or “E-
mail” and press B.

When sending SMS, messages exceeding 160
characters are divided during the sending
process. If the recipient uses a compatible
handset, divided messages are recombined
and delivered as one message. If sent to a
non-compatible handset, messages are
divided into 152 character lots and delivered
separately.
Some messaging functions may not be
available, depending on the network service
you use. If you experience any inconveniences
using these services, contact your service
provider for details.
