Do you mean 140 characters? Or the amount of messages in the inbox?

Wirelessly posted (what does it matter?)

Sms should allow up to 160 characters. That's industry standard

I think it is real annoying only allowing 160 characters. Us there a way that you can allow more to 1 SMS or do you just have to start a new SMS and continue with what you were texting?

There is a reason it is called "SMS" - Short Message Service.

I dont know about you guys, but i have a Curve on TMO and at the top of my SMS writing page it says 160 1/6
Which means i have 160 characters left on that one page (at the cost of one text) with a maximum of 6 pages (as the cost of 6 texts)
