Text Messaging
Does anyone have this phone and text people with different wireless providers. Currently I have an i850 and feel it is very slow with texting. Im looking for a phone that is pretty much instant for back and forth texting. Thanks

Indeed. Texting anyone through Nextel is a chore. My daughter is deaf, she uses a Sidekick II from T-Mo. My wife has a Moto i850 with Nextel, the conversations as simple as, "what time you will be meeting us", take all day...

SO EITHER DEAL WITH IT OR GET RID OF NEXTEL? DO YOU THINK IT WILL BE QUICKER IN THE NEAR FUTURE?

Its all up to Sprint Nextel they have the technology to convert over to SMS(like every carrier in US) its all up to them.

Actually the newer nextel phones all use mms, which is much better than the previous, web message they used. The mms messages go through the system an entirely different way and should be instant.

For the most part the speed is back and forth. I can have a whole conversation with some one instantly or it could take LITERALLY all day for a response.
