Working with SMS or MMS Messages
You can write an SMS message of up to 160 characters. When

message as a multi-part message.
You can also send or receive multimedia messages (MMS). In
addition to the familiar text content of text messages, multimedia
messages can contain images, video clips, audio clips, and
combinations of these things in more than one page.
MMS also supports e-mail addressing, so that messages can be
sent from phone to e-mail and vice versa.
Note:

eliminate device overload.
