You can only send MMS. Click on a contact, and select "send MMS message" or whatever....

Yes, MMS can only be sent to a regular cell phone number.

The thing with sending MMS is that I believe (if you're with Nextel) that it counts as an SMS. And even with the unlimited plan, you only get 100 SMS messages. The way to get around that is to set up the cell phone that you're trying to send a text to as an email. (For example....123456789@<hidden>, 123456789@<hidden>) And I've found that it will go through much quicker than an MMS. Hope this helps.

Yes when they reply to your message you will see there phone number and possible name, however you do need a text pack for this. Just use there phone number no need for email extension.

Also keep in mind that the unlimited BB plan only includes incoming and no outgoing MMS/SMS.
