I can't say if this is absolutely so, so take this with a grain of  
salt.  Regular SMS you should be able to send a "concatenated  
message" of over 400 characters (concatenation "joins" regular 160  
character messages together.  If your handset is capable of handling  
concatenated messages you will see one message though receiving or  
sending you will be billed for the number of messages the  
concatenated message takes.  I also believe that this is for regular  
"SMS" messages and not for SMS email messages.  If you send email  
with more than 140 or so characters for an SMS email it may be sent  
as a MMS.  Sending a MMS will cost you 25¢ and for TMTG will of  
course be free.
