Re: Way to remove 160 char. limit on texts?

I know verizon doesn't. I think they're the only carrier that doesn't. If I'm not mistaken, what happens is the verizon servers automatically split it up on one end and stitch it together on the other, just because of SMS's inferior capabilities. If my phone would allow more than 160 characters, I know it would still do that, the splitting and stitching of the texts. It's rather annoying to get 3 texts from my girlfriend when I would have gotten only 1 on my dumb phone. And she gets multiple texts from me as well, instead of just one.
