The following functions use shared memory that is dependent
on the data quantity per item and shared memory available
at a time in the Nokia 7210:
- Phone book (up to 300 entries)
- SMS: Max 75 messages of text only or 25 picture
messages or a combination of those (dynamic memory)
- SMSs (up to 150 text messages or 50 picture/concatenated
messages)
- Calendar notes (up to 250 entries)
- To-do list (up to 30 entries)
- Fixed ringing tones (11 preset, not removable)
The following features share a memory pool of 725 kB:
- MMS messages (max size 30 kB per MMS message)
- Ringing tones in Gallery (20 preset, all removable)
- Images (10 preset, all removable)
- Java™ applications (3 preset, max download
size 64 kB per application)

Traditional picture messages are supported in black and
white, pictures in size 72 x 28 pixels.
The preloaded pictures are optimized for the larger color
screen, but the size is the same as in the traditional;
this means that all the traditional, small, detailed graphic
pictures do not look optimal in the Nokia 7210.

Multimedia Messaging Service, or MMS, is a messaging service
for the mobile environment standardized by the WAP forum
and the 3rd Generation Partnership Program 3GPP. To end
users, MMS is very similar to Short Message Service (SMS);
it provides automatic, immediate delivery for user created
content from phone to phone. The message addressing used
is primarily phone numbers, thus the traffic goes from
phone to phone. MMS also provides support for e-mail addressing
so that messages can be sent via e-mail.
In addition to the content type familiar from SMS, text,
MMS messages can contain images, text, voice or audio
clips, video clips, and presentation information. An MMS
message is a single entity with text, image, and sound
content. The extent of content support varies from phone
to phone.
MMS transport is done using WAP protocols and any bearer
capable of WAP can be used. Thus, MMS is bearer independent,
e.g. MMS is not limited to only GSM or WCDMA.

Yes, if the other manufacturer supports the 3GPP and WAP
Forum MMS specifications and the MMS Conformance Document.
^ Back to top.
The average size of an MMS is around 10 kB with text and
default size image (122 x 96), and 30 kB with text, image
and sound.
^ Back to top.
The only limit for the text size is the message size.
The Nokia 7210 supports messages up to 30 kB, so if a
message contains only text, several thousands of characters
are supported in one MMS message.
^ Back to top.
Images up to VGA (640 x 480 pixels) size can be zoomed
onto the screen, and the same messages can be sent from
the phone. In terms of image data volume, the entire 30
kB of the message can be used by one single image.

Several. It depends on the number of applications, images,
polyphonic tones, etc. that the user has downloaded.
^ Back to top.
For images: JPEG, GIF87a, GIF89a, WBMP and PNG. For sound:
polyphonic ringing tone.
^ Back to top.
The Nokia 7210 supports polyphonic ringing tone sounds.
Other formats will be discarded since they cannot be played
back to the end user.
^ Back to top.
Yes, all content objects can be saved separately: text,
image and tones. The saved objects can be used when creating
a new Multimedia Message, a Wallpaper, or as a personal
ringing tone.
^ Back to top.
The speed of MMS transmission depends on the message size
and the used bearer. For example: assuming a message size
of 30kB and a GPRS bearer of net capacity 10 kbit/s gives
t = (30kB*8bit/B)/(10kbit/s) = 240kbit /10kbit/s = 24
s. This would give a total transmission time of 48 seconds
from the Nokia 7210 to server to receiving phone. However,
since the individuals receiving the MMS messagesare not
aware of the ongoing transmission before the whole message
has been delivered, there is no delay perceived! Thus,
MMS is perceived as very fast!

Java™ applications, SP MIDI tones, the Nokia ringing tone
and Nokia operator logo are defined as closed content
types. Each content type is identified by a separate MIME
type. For example, if the received MMS message contains
any of the closed content types, the message cannot be
forwarded to another phone or transferred to a PC via
PC Suite. Forwarding and sending of the following formats
are supported: JPEG, GIF87a, GIF89a, WBMP, PNG, and unicode
text. No forwarding is allowed for SP MIDI and the other
closed content types listed above.
^ Back to top.
The pictures are shown in the order they were originally
encoded into the message by manually scrolling up and
down the message.
^ Back to top.
This is not possible; the user is not allowed to forward
SP MIDI files.
