Abstract
A wireless communication device comprises a memory exceed indicator. The wireless communication device receives a message from a network. Upon receipt of the message, the device determines whether there is sufficient memory to store the message. If there is insufficient memory, the device activates a memory exceed indicator which indicates that a message is being stored in the network and that the memory of the wireless communication device contains insufficient memory to receive and store that message. If one or more messages are deleted from the memory of the device in order to make room for new messages, then a new message received from the network is stored in the memory of the device and the memory exceed indicator is deactivated.
