When you say "mass" what exactly do you mean? If you are asking if you can text more than 1 person at a time, the answer is yes.

I was trying to do the same thing today.... wanted to forward a message to many people at the same time. I was able to do so, but I had to add each person 1 by 1 as additional recipient, unlike my old Razr where I would selet a bunch of names and then click ok. I wonder if there is an option like that on a Pearl...

It's kind of easy. After you add the first recipient, scroll back to the name field and open the menu and add another recipient.

FYI, I'm in Vernon Hills, IL. Up the road from you on Rte 83.

Right... But I have to add them all 1 by 1... Once I select a person to add, it goes back to the message, then i have to click menu againa nd scrol to another person, then menu again to another, and so on and on and on....

One solution I came up with was to have make a group.

Address Book- new group and add the people you want.

I did this to the people who I talk and send texts to on a regular basis, and I also did a group for family and one for friends... I hope that helps.
