3 SMS instead of 1

[Guest Magnetic_dud]

Sometimes, I write a 150 char sms, and my phone sends 3 sms!

The receiver receives:

-if phone is old: 3 sms, 2 of them are not readable.

-if phone is new: 2 sms

And then:

When I insert the euro logo, or èéòà^ùìÈ etc..., the counter read it like only one character, while on other standard phones, it's counted twice.

To be more clear: usually the € occupies 2 chars, because the first standard heven't this code.

Now it occupies only one char?

Microsoft reinvented the ucs standard?
