does anyone know if it is possible to put a password or whatever to view my text messages? like my friends razor can do it and it requires some numbers to get into the messages. does anyone know if i can do the same on my a900? thanks

Wow - I never thought about that. Who reads through your texts? You mean friends who pick up your phone to check it out and start going through all the menus? LOL - I'd better think twice before I let anyone touch my baby!

yea, some (mostly the girls) like to go through my texts to see what i've been up to, cause they all know that i have free U/L texting. plus, they know the places to blackmail you- i've had bad experiences with that. that has happened quite a few times. now, when i give my phone to the girls, i always take the 20 sec to erase all my text.

How about you smack whomever picks up your phone? That's what I do. NO ONE touches my phones. :)

And Picturmail is always cool, espcially since i have MMS now (old school picturemail is so lame, lol)
