Search engines are pretty good at getting the gist of the page without having hundreds and hundreds of words. The amount of text on the page should be dictated by the necessity of getting the point and sales message to the visitor. If you can do that then the engines won't be an issue.

You can have the bulk of it below the fold by all means, safely tucked underneath your call to action if you will, but you should have it.
