Using SMS Text Messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless phone
number to send instant text messages from your Sprint PCS Vision
Phone to their messaging-ready phone – and they can send messages
to you. When you receive a new message, you’ll automatically be
notified with a one-way text message.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of pre-set
messages, such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way,” that make
composing messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own
pre-set messages (up to 100 characters) from your Sprint PCS Vision
Phone or at
