Sprint Makes iDEN - CDMA Walkie Talkie Call
Yesterday, 4:51 PM source: Sprint

Sprint last week completed its first successful walkie talkie call between an iDEN and a CDMA phone. A spokeswoman has confirmed that test was an important advancement in Sprint's efforts to launch walkie talkie service using its Revision A CDMA network. The carrier intends to launch a service that both works like and is compatible with iDEN walkie talkie servies over its mobile broadband network in 2008.

Shouldn't we be seeing at least one Q-Chat enabled phone on the FCC website by now? If Sprint expects to launch the service early in 2008, I would expect at least some rumors of phones to be posted.

I don't think it will ever die, but I would like it to take a nap like YourDaddy said till it's up & working fully.
You don't hear about it anymore from AT&T or Verizon, just not worth paying extra for.

From what I hear is that AT&T is doing a silent campaign to the corporate clients and that PTT for them so far is on schedule. We all know that individual users will not fall for PTT and we have seen its downfall with VZW. I will not expect PTT to be a consumer driven item at all by any of the providers especially with M2M being there.

I guess they are doing a good job of this "Silent" campain then.

I agree I don't see it being a big thing for the average consumer, with M2M & SMS being the bigger item for users.

Maybe when these corp. users start deciding to have it for their families it may grow like Nextel, but who knows.

Today while I was at eh store the person I deal with was just finishing up the deal for a 50 user fan account with all having PTT activated. He also said that so far this month it has been his best month ever with corp account activations and PTT (his recloection was over 600 PTT users). He tired to talk me into it, and I frowned at him and my response who am I going to PTT with, my self?

It would be funny to see you PTT yourself, don't think it would work unless you bought a 2nd PTT phone & did it that way.

When I migrated over I have 3 LG 400's with PTT ability, and yeah I could add it to my family plan buy why spend that much additional on it?
