If you send an SMS message to a cell phone but it's off... what happens?

[whistleclient]

does the phone get it when it's turned back on? or is it just a delivery failure?

 

[The Stigenator]

it gets it when on.

 

[WobbleWobble]

You get it later I believe.

 

[Adul]

its gets queued in cyberspace until the very moment the phone is powered on and checks for messages.

No one hears it?

what happens if you try to send an SMS to a landline? I know it's not going to go through, but do you just get an error message or something?
