I don’t know about you but the 1,000 text message limit was, well, limiting.

    75,000 messages isn’t really a secret…

    Yeah I see how a 1,000 can be a little limiting, but 75,000? Thats A LOT. Who needs to store that many?

  3. Jon says:

    How did they discover this? when this was posted, assume the update had been out for 27hours… thats around 40 txts/min for 24 hours straight!

  4. Nigel says:

    75000? I don’t think I’ve ever sent that many in my life!

    People are texting a lot more now, especially when they replace it with actually talking on the phone. Its depressing.

    wow, i’d be happy with 100 my inbox can only hold 30, its very frustrating. but my outbox can hold 80, its strange and it wont go vice versa either like theres no 180 limit all together. its really annoying especially because theres some texts i’d like to keep. I have a razr btw and i highly advise against anyone considering buying one. but back to the post 75000 is a bit of over kill

    but I find that my iPhone does get mighty slow loading if I have more than a hundred or so, I dread to think what it would be like with 75,000!!!

    There’s also a new feature in calendar that lets you set 2 reminder timers for an event instead of only one.
