Answer 3

It means that your wireless provider is going to charge you the standard rate for a text.  And if you download a ring tone, then they will charge you the rate for a data call.

Answer 4

It will just cost the price of the Picture message no more then that!

Answer 5

Yep, they will charge you.  The charge is going to be the going rate for the ring tone, going on the internet, etc...Unless you have a plan with a specified amount of data usage or internet usage.  If you have unlimited internet, than you wouldn't have to worry about the amount of time or data it takes.  

Answer 6

Yes, you will be charged for receiveing the message. It will probably cost the amount of a text or picture message.
