Each message can be up to 160 characters in length. The number of remaining
characters that can be entered is displayed above the message.
Text characters are entered using the keypad. Each keypad button is labelled with up
to 4 text characters (e.g. 7 = PQRS). The text characters are entered by pressing the
keypad once for the first character, twice for the second, and three times for the third,
and so on.
After a short delay, the cursor will advance to the next character entry. Entered
characters are inserted immediately to the right of the cursor.
Punctuation characters (full stop, comma, question mark, etc) are entered using the #
key. A space is entered with the * key.
Each line displays up to 12 characters. Up to five lines can be displayed at once. If more
than five lines of text are entered, the lines will be scrolled up.
