How long of an SMS message can I send, if my phone is on Fido, and the recipient is on Bell? 140 characters? 160? Does it matter what kinds of phones or accounts we have? I have a... uh.... sensitive message I want to send to someone. It's 153 characters and I don't want it to get cut off....

Bell phones can send SMS up to 140 characters, but Bell phones can RECEIVE 160 character SMS, it will just come in as two text messages.
