Messages (Menu 2)
The Short Message Service (SMS) function is a
network service and may not be supported by
your network. Contact your home service provid-
er for details. The phone interface can be used for
recording and listening to voice messages in
voice mailboxes and for reading received short
messages. Reading short messages is, however,
more convenient via the larger display of the
communicator interface. To read or send short
messages, use the communicator interface’s SMS
application (see chapter 6 "Short messages" on
page 6-1) or the Notes application (see chapter
8 "Notes" on page 8-1).
