 • MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES
This is a Network Service. 
Only devices that offer compatible multimedia message or e-mail features 
can receive and display multimedia messages. Multimedia message objects 
may contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your device or PC. Do not 
open any attachment if you are not sure of the trustworthiness of the sender.
A multimedia message can contain text, images, and sounds. Your phone has a 
multimedia message viewer for playing messages and a multimedia inbox for 
storing saved messages. Once you save the multimedia message, you can use the 
image as wallpaper or the sound as a ringing tone.
