Using Text Messaging
With Text Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless phone 
number to send instant text messages from your phone to 
their messaging-ready phone – and they can send messages 
to you. When you receive a new message, it will 
automatically display on your phone’s screen.
In addition, Text 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 phone.
