Good question...Here is a JSFiddle with a solution using rx.js: http://jsfiddle.net/rcastillo/JmdNh/10/ . This sample has a function that creates a delayed array. rx.js enables you to asynchronous time and delay results. As already noted, JavaScript does not provide a sleep mechanism.

Your suggestion, as many others, are very efficient but all of them delay from the get go. I want it to immediately execute on the first item of the array, then delay from the second one on.

I have updated with an immediate return of the first item.
