■ Multimedia messages
A multimedia message can contain text, sound, a picture, a calendar note,
a business card, or a video clip. If the message is too large, the phone may
not be able to receive it. Some networks allow text messages that include
an Internet address where you can view the multimedia message.
You cannot receive multimedia messages during a call, a game, another
Java application, or an active browsing session over GSM data. Because
delivery of multimedia messages can fail for various reasons, do not rely
solely upon them for essential communications.
