I do not use the built-in SMS Messaging application because it's way too buggy. I had to manually reset my Verizon 700p at least once or twice a day due to that application locking it up. As a result I did an extensive search for a third-party SMS application and landed on Agendus Mail Standard Edition.
When you install Agendus Mail, it will ask if you want to install Mail, SMS or both. I use Snappermail for email, so I only installed its SMS module. Make sure you install 5.3, not the current version, which 5.31. Find 5.3 here: http://tinyurl.com/2n4b6s It never hangs or resets my device. However, it's not as feature-rich as the built-in. What it lacks is threading.
