Try this: Go to "contacts"; selecte the contact you want to send a message to (you will need to take you stylus and tap on the contact you want to send the text message to; look for a heading that says "Send text message"; again you will need to take your stylus and tap the "Send text message". Now you should have a blank form that has "From: (Text Message) at the very tippy top, under that it will say "To: (here is where you will see the contact you chose)", then a line under that. Below that line you should see a line that is flashing, the line will be vertical, you can use your keyboard to type. You will need to push the screen to the left to find the keyboard, if you can not find the keyboard tap (again with your stylus) the icon in the very bottom of the screen that is in the middle. That should bring up a keyboard on your screen; now type the message you want to send. This next set is very important, in the lower left hand of the screen is the word "Send" you must tap that with your stylus. You should get a message that says "message sent", use your stylus again and tap dismiss. I hope this helps out, text messaging can be confusing and dangerous if not properly trained.
