K750i: maximum possible length of text messages?

pigeonpie

I use an old SE K750i. In text Settings > Text message > maximum message length I have 2 options. Maximum available and Fit into one msg.
I have chosen Max. available but the total length of message is really short compared to newer phones.
is there anything I can do to increase it? Failing that, if I choose the Fit into one msg option, will I still retain the maximum message length (ie not make it shorter still) but 2 texts will be sent at the same time?

I have unlimited texts and an overseas text package so the no of texts doesn't bother me, just it keeps going to Text 2 etc.

thanks.

PS btw sorry to be thick but what is Push on the text settings?

Set it to maximum and it will send more than one text to complete the message.
