SMS or text messaging is a convenient way to
send brief text message directly to a mobile phone.
A text message can be up to 160 characters long or about 25 words. If you
are sending SMS messages longer than 160, you need to upgrade your SMS
service to allow more characters by contacting your wireless phone provider.
We recommend you get a data plan with unlimited email and data.
If the SMS email you sent is
not received by the mobile phone, contact you wireless service provider.
They may have to provision your phone to accept SMS.
