You guys arent understanding his problem, its happening to me too. I click the new sms icon and then the + and the name shows up in the box, i go to send the text and it comes back to me. It only tries to send it to the area code

No we understand the problem. He's not a developer, downloaded the beta, and installed it on his phone and is now pissy that a developer preview doesn't work perfect.

His problem is he can't wait like everyone else.
 
Have tested this on my old 3G using for testing. If you create a new SMS by going to Messages and selecting new message, Clicking the + button and adding a contact it WILL work (or at least in my case).

It only doesn't work when selecting from Contacts "Text Messsage"

Besides that, it actually is just sending without an area code. Once it fails at sending if you go back it will show the number missing the area code. Unsure why it shows the area code before sending and removes after. Small bugs, will be fixed.

Gotcha your right, that way works the other way doesnt.
Im not complaining though, I know its a beta and I knew it wasnt gonna be perfect when I installed it.
