Multimedia messages

Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display multimedia
messages. The appearance of a message may vary depending on the receiving device.

A multimedia message can contain text, sound, a picture, a calendar note, a
business card, or a video clip. If the message is too large, the phone may not be
able to receive it. Some networks allow text messages that include an internet
address where you can view the multimedia message.

You cannot receive multimedia messages during a call or an active browsing
session over GSM data. Because delivery of multimedia messages can fail for
various reasons, do not rely solely upon them for essential communications.

Write and send a multimedia message

The wireless network may limit the size of multimedia messages. If the inserted
image exceeds this limit, the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by
multimedia message service.

To set the settings for multimedia messaging, see "Multimedia," p. 45. To check
availability and to subscribe to MMS, contact your service provider.
