Pretty sure it is Sprint and not the phone. May be due to the added influx of users over the holidays. Lot of us have been kicked into other timezones.
SMS is sent UDP (connectionless) on a Store and Forward network and the packets are queued for delivery but this was one of the worse for me. Others my have seens worse.
But over the years, most of us send a message and assume it made it to ist destination. Often we depend on it like, "be sure to pick me up at 5". Today my daughter send me a text and when I did not answer right away, she replied, "did you get my last text."
I guess that is how we will function until we regain more confidence in the system.
Hell, maybe we will go back to voice calls!! What a concept. Talking to a person over the phone.
