SMS symbols
Tue, 14 Feb 2006 18:03:04 +010
Hi guys,
I'm trying to implement a SMS-sender, but for the specific purpose it's 
required that I know the exact number of different symbols (maybe 128 or 
256) that can be encoded in a SMS. Where do I go to read more about the 
SMS protocol / specifications?

Best regards Morten
