Does PalmOS phone library support unicode SMS messages? Does PalmOne SMS libray support them?

I tried to use the SMS bundled application on a T|T to receive a message that is known to be in unicode from an GSM phone and it just ignored it!

The 5.x platform telephony libraries do support Unicode (UCS-2) in SMS messages. I don't know if these libraries are used by the T|T, or if it has a replacement set from a 3rd party.


Also note that any non-convertible Unicode character (ie anything not found in Windows code page 1252) will get mapped to either a '?' or perhaps nothing, depending on the version of the library. So if you received a Chinese message, for example, on an English T|T then you might not wind up with anything being displayed.
