I believe that impact1036 makes a valid point but is not conveying it well. I believe that they are saying that the alarm to wake them up may possibly wake up others in the house. I work very early in the morning and often times I want to send a text to my son or someone else at a specific time, but I will not be able to send the message at that specific time. For example, at 3 AM I realize that I want to tell my son something as I leave for work. I don't want to send the message at 3AM because he is still asleep. I know he gets up for his job at 6:30 AM and leaves the house at 7:30 AM, so if I could send a text at 6:45 AM that would be ideal, BUT... I might forget, and when Ann154 suggests a calendar reminder, that could work but it will not send the text at the desired time and I might not be able to send the message at that time because I will be at work and unable to send the text or hear the reminder. If I could write the text at 3AM and schedule it to be sent at 6:45 AM, then I could accomplish the desired task without having to go to a calendar to remind myself to do it later or to try and sync with my son's calendar, if he even uses one. The real issue here is that Samsung has considered this useful enough to be developed into the stock messaging app, and that Verizon has decided to arbitrarily disable this feature for no apparent reason. When I saw that Verizon had included their own Message+ app preinstalled on the phone I assumed that they had disabled the feature on the stock version as some method of having us use their app for this purpose, but that isn't the case either because you cant schedule a message on that app either. Interestingly though you can schedule an email to be sent at a specific time even though I believe that most people are not alerted to an incoming email and a poorly timed email is not as big of a concern as a poorly timed text message. I had been using the Handcent app because I was able to schedule a text there, but lately their app has become ad infested and unusable. It is frustrating because we paid for our phones and the phones have this feature, and while some of you may not find it useful, some of us do and would like Verizon to restore the stock app back to how it was designed to allow us to schedule a text or at least give us a logical reason as to why it was disabled in the first place.
