therefore allowing the sender to choose a time for the recipient to receive it?

with the help of yahoo calendar entry with a reminder function, times messages can be sent to your mobile phone.

The main problem is that texts are low priority traffic, so you have no control over how long it is going to take to be delivered. Could be 1 minute or 1 day. So every if you can time sending it, you can't guarantee a time to receive it. I would certainly pay extra to be able to guarantee immediate delivery but that's currently not possible as far as I know.

The main reason is the fact that the sms servers owned by network operators are always busy. During quite periods they take the bandwidth back for phone and data services...
Because of the restrictions they cannot garuentee a delivery time. Also if the phone is switched off or the sms memory area is full...the mesage will sit o nthe server for hours or days before it gets resent...

Phones have the capability to schedule phonecalls you havee to make, but not text messages, although it would be useful, you're right.
However, if your phone is Java capable and you're into programming you could make a Java application that will send a text message at a certain time.
