You can create, send, receive, organise, delete
and store the following message types on your
Toshiba phone:
• Short Message Service (SMS) messages.

You can also use Windows Live for instant

Text messages
Text messaging, or the Short Message Service
(SMS), enables you to exchange text messages
with other phones. For details on text
messages, contact your service provider.
For information on setting up your text message
service centre, see Setting up text messages
service centre in Annex 4 - Configuring
SMS, MMS and e-mail.
Your Toshiba phone supports the sending of
more than the standard 160-character limit. If
you enter more than 160 characters, the
message is split into linked text messages.
These linked messages will be sent at the same
time.
Receiving text messages
Text messages are automatically received
when your Toshiba phone is switched on. When
your phone is off, messages are held by your
service provider until the next time your phone is
connected to the network.
Your Toshiba phone will alert you when a new
text message arrives.
When you have an ongoing conversation using
text messages, the messages are threaded
together into a single conversation. This
enables you to view the entire conversation as
you type.
