My V500 stores 20 - but my suspicion is that is the SIM capacity. (I
didn't know the V500 could store them in the phone - can it?).

I'll have to have a play with it later....

Very strange - that suggests to me that maybe it's a firmware issue -
are there multiple firmwares for the v600? And if so, is it easy to
change?...

Thanks!

Correct.

A firmware upgrade should resolve your problem.

whether the messages are stored on the sim or in the phone are determined by
the operator settings in their flex file. Thats why it varies from one oper
to the next
