    Verizon & Nextel's Radio

    Is it true that Verizon is coming out with a phone & service that will include a walkie talkie radio like Nextel?

    If so, any ideas as to when or what phone(s) will be available?
    thanks.

    Yes it is true. The Motorola v60p is the first phone I know of that will have this feature. I have heard dates as early as June, but since June is next week, I doubt it. The service probably will be up and running before the big holiday shopping season though. You can check the phone out at Phonescoop.

    I also read June 1st as the release date for PTT and the v60p, as well as the VX6000. I saw it on HoFo, and also i have a friend who is a Verizon re-seller and he we told in June PTT will be released.

    Thanks for the replys.

    Does the VX6000 have the push to talk feature? I looked up the phone and did not see it in the LG description.

    My friend was at the VZ store not but 2 days ago and heard atleast 6 months as well. The guy at the VZ store said this is due to the 7 second delay that they CAN NOT get any lower.
