Text messages
Text messages are sent via SMS (Short Message Service).

recipients, for example, that you may have saved in the 
phonebook.
You can add pictures, animations, melodies, and sound 
effects to a text message, and format the text using EMS 
(Enhanced Messaging Service).

Note: Text messages with EMS functionality can only 
be sent to other compatible phones supporting the EMS 
standard.

is usually saved on the SIM card.
