The text messaging application can be
opened from the menu by tapping
Messaging then Text.
•Tap New to compose a new text
message
•Either enter the phone number in the
To box, or tap the Contacts icon at
the bottom of the screen to select your
recipients. Then tap Subject to enter
the subject, or the message itself
For longer text messages you may enter
text in the main window below the
subject box.
•Then tap Send to send the message
Your message will then move to the
Outbox. Your device then sends your text
message in the background. To check
messages in the Outbox, as well as other
SMS folders, simply tap on the folder in the

Please note:
Most mobiles can only receive text
messages of 160 characters. The Xda II can
send and receive messages much longer
than this, however a charge will apply for
each text message block of 160 characters.
If you have a long message, you may
choose to send an email instead.
