With the Instant Messaging service you can send short, simple text messages to other online users, while the phone keeps all the messages during the conversation.

Your contact list shows you when your contacts are online and available to participate in an instant messaging conversation. When you have written and sent your message, it remains displayed. The reply message appears below your original message.

You can chat with one other person or, where operators' services are available, you can chat with several people at the same time.

Before you can start instant messaging, you may need to:

• Contact your network operator or service provider to receive your unique ID and password for the chat.
• Set the required settings for the Instant Messaging service. See Presence settings.
