At its introduction, texting wasn't meant to be the massive means of communication that it has become. With this in mind, the 160 limit makes sense. What does not make sense is the variance of this character limit among carriers and devices.

the only way to exceed 160 is with EMS capable devices, but they're still sent as separate messages, they're just re-configured on the reciepient's end...05-18-09 11:36 PMLike 0 - Im not sure under what conditions but some MMS do use data, my daughters phone dosent have a data plan and most of her data functions are disabled, she does have SMS and MMS and each month I see a 1 Mb usage on her data, I called VZW to ask what the data useage is from and was told some MMS will use data, very little but some.

What I meant is that some devices and carriers allow the user tp exceed the 160 character limit. Others do not.

- Yeah this is all good and all but can someone actually find a way to manipulate and take advantage so I can send text msgs longer than 160 on my storm while on the Verizon network? Otherwise who cares
