I've been seeing the same thing on T-Mobil tonight.

Subject: SMS hinkiness on AT&T?

Is anyone else seeing issues with multiple copies and delayed
originals for SMSes on the AT&T network?  I've been seeing this
behavior for about the past 24-36 hours.

This is phone-to-phone, not email-gateway stuff.  Includes both new
iPhones and people on T-Mobile as well as $random_att_handset.  Given
that our (royal we here) network monitoring is gatewayed directly via
a phone...  this is of some annoyance, to get interface transition and
other alarms hours after the fact.

I'm an old AT&T Blue customer if that makes a difference.

Anyone?  Bueller?
