AFAICT, Verizon limits the text messages to 70something characters.
Annoying.  But they should be splitting it into smaller messages for you
so that they can charge you more, rather than throwing the excess away.
Could your paging software be truncating the message?  Using qpage I
can send an unlimited length message.  It just shows up in multiple
messages.

I configured qpage to break it up for me.  Sprint allows messages to
be about twice as long.  Most of my notifications fit in a single text
message.

Perhaps the paging services do eventually truncate pages if you send it
all as one message.
