Instant messaging (IM) (network service) allows you to exchange short messages in real time with friends and family, regardless
whether they are using their IM-capable phone or a PC, as long as they all use the same IM service. With IM, you can see who is
offline, busy, and who is online and available to chat.
Before you can use IM, you must subscribe to the service. To check the availability and costs and to subscribe to the service,
contact your wireless network operator and the IM service provider.
Depending on your IM service provider, you may not have access to all of the features described in this guide and your menus
may be different.

services, contact your wireless service provider or an IM service provider.
Each IM service provider has its own unique interface, so the IM menu items, menu text, and icons may differ for each IM service.
If you have questions about the differences, contact your wireless service provider or IM service provider.
