2. Can you try a soft reset and text mstuff again please?

Good news on point 1. Did a soft reset and had my wife send me a new text message. Message showed up. Pressed the screen, up popped that white window. It has four icons on the bottom, looks like "contacts", "SMS", email and "guy w/a phone" . Press the Text message balloon icon --- nothing. press and hold it, a grey screen appears with "Messages" in it - goes back to the white screen when I take finger off. Clicking on the Top rectangle does nothing. It says Messages on the left and an empty contact picture on the left. Pressing "Menu" also does nothing.

Thanks for the lightening fast response.
