I text all the time all day long to everyone I know. I like it better than phone calls for most things. I'm on Sprint and in the dozens (more even) of texts that I send and receive I've had about 4 that have been delayed like that (since 1999). It's more common (though rare) that Sprint says it failed to send a message right after I press send.
