Your friend isn't as efficient as you think. They haven't sent those messages yet..i think the network is getting busier because i have a friend trying to send me pictures and it has been almost a half hour and i haven't received it yet.

My girl just called me to help her update hers (she's not a techie AT ALL).. We updated her in 2 minutes.. and she fired off a message... i got it in under 20 seconds after she said she sent it..
