what is text messaging?

Text messaging is a feature that allows customers to send short messages (up to 160 characters) from their Cricket phone. With a text messaging capable phone, customers can send messages to most other wireless users in the United States and Canada by simply using the 10-digit mobile number of the recipient.  Customers can also send text messages to friends, family and business associates internationally for $0.20 per message.
