what is e-mail and c-mail in mobile phone?

I don't even know what your talking about lolz

e-mail is like regular e-mail that u can send to any e-mail address, while c-mail can only be sent to other au subscribers using their phone nr and not their e-mail address. c-mail is also cheaper (or even free of charge) but it only allows u to send 100 characters at a time.

so if i want to send to docomo or softbank, i must subscribe for e-mail right?

blimp 04-11-2008 06:34 AM

yes, or for that matter to a regular e-mail address too. i don't know anyone who doesn't include an e-mail subscription today.

this u might know, but since u only mention softbank and docomo, i'll say it anyway.
in the japanese mobile system no texting or SMS exist. u send a regular e-mail through, in the mobile phone embedded, e-mail client. the advantage of this system is that u can send e-mails to a computer too and u can receive regular e-mails from a computer, such as a gmail or any other e-mail provider. meaning that ppl in the US, AU or Europe can in theory always reach without actually calling u.

Yeah...my boyfriend uses docomo, and it's helpful, since though I'm in america, I can let him know/ask when to call, what to do, etc.
