    Truncating SMS Messages received from ATT iPhone Senders

    When I receive a long SMS msg from someone using an iPhone, my Revolution just recieves the first 160 characters. My old Droid would split the message and send 2 separate messages so I would get the whole thing. I haven't found this to be an issue with messages sent from any other phone types or carriers. Any suggestions? Is there a setting I need to enable/disable? It's pretty annoying to have to ask people to resend their message in a shortened form....

    I have the same issue. Used handcent app with my old moto droid but now that's not on the market. ;( Can't find a setting for it in the stock app.
