9. Instant messages

Take text messaging to the next level by experiencing instant messaging (IM) in a
wireless environment. Engage in instant messaging with friends and family,
regardless of the mobile system or platform they are using (like the Internet), as
long as you all use the same IM service. Check with your wireless service provider
for availability.

Before you can start using IM on your phone, you must first subscribe to your
wireless service provider’s text messaging service. GPRS network service is
required to use instant messaging. You must also register with the IM service you
want to use. See ”Register with an IM service” on page 42 for more information.

Note: Depending on both your IM service provider and your wireless
service provider, you may not have access to all of the features described
in this guide.

Register with an IM service

Before you can use IM, you must register with an IM service to obtain an IM user
name and password. You can obtain an IM user name and password by registering
over the Internet (using your computer) with the IM service provider you have
selected. During the registration process, you will have the opportunity to create
the user name and password of your choice. For more information about signing
up for IM services, contact your wireless service provider.

IM icons and menu items

Each IM service provider has its own unique interface, so the IM menu items, screen
display text, and icons on your phone may appear differently for each IM service. If
you have questions about the differences in the various IM service providers’ screen
text and icons, contact your wireless service provider for more information.
