Messaging
Messaging features are network dependent services.
You can send and receive text messages directly with other compatible phones or other wireless devices. There are different kinds of sending and receiving messages, such as instant messaging, unified messaging and chat via cellular phones.
Instant Messaging
"Instant messaging" is the ability to send and receive short messages between desktop PCs.
It detects whether or not recipients are online and willing to receive messages.
Messages are then sent and appear immediately in a pop-up box on the recipient's computer screen.
Now you can do this also via cellular phones.
Unified Messaging
With "Unified Messaging" you have the ability to access voice, fax and email messages from a single mailbox using a standard telephone,
or Internet-enabled cellular phone or PC.
Chat rooms
You can have a direct conversation with another person using the chat feature. Chat has distinct advantages over text messaging, such as faster send and reply, as well as direct, uninterrupted communication with your chat partner.
To use Chat you must subscribe to text messaging, which is network dependent. Contact your service provider for more information.
