Anyone know E-mail address for Quest wireless? To receive Text messages form MNN. Thanks Craig Quest is giving me the run around.
Correct the average cell phone can only accept appox 160 chars per/message and we have a maximum char count per/message of 230, so cell phones are often not the optimal reception device to use, sometimes alphanumeric pagers or just plain ol' email addresses are better. Also many cell phone companies charge text messages each or even per-character, ouch.abqscan said:You got it... However, there are times where the messages that come from the MNN are longer than the the wireless phone can receive as a text message. Thats why a lot of us sport alpha pagers![]()

Actually, I've found my phone to be very good for this sort of thing. I have no maximum that I am aware of, but Cingular does break large messages down into multiple "small" messages. Not perfect, but I still get the messages and they are very readable although sometimes in the wrong order.jimmnn said:Correct the average cell phone can only accept appox 160 chars per/message and we have a maximum char count per/message of 230, so cell phones are often not the optimal reception device to use, sometimes alphanumeric pagers or just plain ol' email addresses are better.

Not forgetting do you want to receive a text page on your cell phone at 339am??
