actually text messaging has been an issue on the IDEN network for quite some time. There is supposed to be a fix coming rather soon. The network is not over worked that article is bunk.

I would have to agree with you...when I had Nextel a few years back, it would take forever for me to receive a text from anyone. But nothing is perfect...

the problem is they are using an mms gateway for all texts instead of sms, the network in not overloaded just needs a true sms solution which i hope is the resolution they speak of with a rumored fixed date of may 7th

We shall see. My aunt still uses Nextel. And I was considering going back because I love the service but there are so many problems. All we can do is cross our fingers and hope that it is true and not a rumor...
