i noticed that too but i was thinking it was just the delay to go from the phone your dialing from to the one that is receiving. i don't think it is a delay on the receiving phone. many moons ago you had to wait while the network located your party and you would get voice telling that it was searching for the person and could here some clicking as it searched. i think its the same thing here where you dial, hear a ring but the signal is off in space finding its way back to the receiving phone.
