I'm very familiar with this issue so I know how annoying you must find it to be. It's also annoying for the recipient of the text. I can recall countless times where a friend texted me a question and I reply instantly, only to be cursed out some hours later because the friend thought I ignored him. The text would then magically appear later on, proving that I did indeed reply to him.

You say you have a TP2. The problem actually became worse for me when I upgraded from a Touch Pro to a TP2. I would try over and over to text someone and get an error each time stating that the text cannot be sent. And then some days later the intended recipient would reply to me asking why I'm repeating myself. However, I don't think I've ever sent one text and had multiple texts be transmitted to the other end.

Anyway, I upgraded to an LG Optimus a couple weeks ago and I haven't had any texting problems since then. I was going to say it could be your phone, but you said your wife and kid have the same issues so it can't be just that. It has to be Sprint's network. Updating PRL made no difference for me, and Sprint was not helpful either when I told them about the issue. If you do call them then I hope you have better luck than I did.
