In addition to the familiar text content of text messages,
multimedia messages can contain images, graphics, and/or
sound.
An MMS message is a separate multimedia presentation in
a single entry, not an attachment to the text file.
Using the MMS feature, your phone can receive a
multimedia message and/or send a picture message,
depending on MMS availability from your service provider.
Only phones that support the multimedia message feature
can receive or display the multimedia messages.
