A multimedia message can contain text, sound, a picture, a calendar note, a
business card, or a video clip. If the message is too large, the phone may not be
able to receive it. Some networks allow text messages that include an Internet
address where you can view the multimedia message.
You cannot receive multimedia messages during a call, a game, another Java
application, or an active browsing session over GSM data. Because delivery of
multimedia messages can fail for various reasons, do not rely solely upon them
for essential communications.
