Abstract
A wireless communication device is configured to visually prompt a user to initiate a text session, and to receive a text session request from the user including a called number. In response to the text session request, the device initiates the text session by placing a first call to a service node using a service node number, and transfers the called number to the service node over the first call. The service node then extends the text session by placing a second call to the called number. Once the text session is established, the device sends a first text message to the service node over the first call, and receives a second text message from the service node over the first call. The device then visually displays the second text message to the user.
