sorry guys, i tried out one of the new iphones for VZW and it took down a couple servers due to it being only the best phone ever produced, ever, in the history of the universe. little known fact, there is a 3rd party company that handles the switching of texts back and forth from one company to the next. I would assume they had a hiccup, not one of the major carriers. ---

so i thought it might be interesting to read up on the interoperability of sms between carriers, and now my brain is fried from all the acronyms. but, interestingly enough, verisign handles some 60% of the US inter-carrier market. seeing as the main 3 carriers in the US were all having issues talking to each other, i’d bet that it wasnt one of the SMS-c’s at the carrier level the hiccuped, it was a company like verisign that handles the traffic. nowyouknow.jpg edit: anyone wishing to have their brain ooze out their ears, here are a few main links I used for info. > **[SMS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS)** > > SMS (Short Message Service) is a text messaging service component of most telephone, World Wide Web, and mobile device systems.
