Help with sms

Ok.. i'm on cricket and i use handcent for messaging. I also use the popup instant notification/instant reply feature.

i have it set to "simple split" messages over 160, but sometimes the longer message of two message will fail and no matter how many times I resend it, it keeps failing. So then I will delete a few words to shorten it and it will either fail once again, or if i;m lucky it will go through.

In doing that, the receiver will get the (2/2) message, and the (1/2) message missing some words from the end of the message. Why the hell does this happen?

--- oh also meant to mention that even though i have it on simple split, sometimes it puts the counter in there if i reply from the popup notification. grrrr!

and the default messenger app only allows 150 chars per SMS so why does handcent allow 160?
