cingular PTT and sprint/nextel DC
Hey. I was just wondering if anyone out there had any thoughts about cingulars new PTT and nextels DC. Does anyone think that now that Cingular has PTT they might put a hurt on nextels DC? Just looking for a little input on the subject.
...
If cingular can get some full featured phones with PTT I think they will have a definate edge.

cingular's PTT is no competition for Nextel Direct Connect. Cingular's PTT has a lot more latency. Even with Sprint they are offering two different types of service presently with Nextel service on the iDen network offering things such as DC. Sprint's native PTT network isn't as good as Direct Connect either.

Latency isn't the issue. Cingular's PTT is actually slightly better with latency than Nexte...

😕 let me guess you've never used cingular ptt have you?.............NO! there is no latency. the connect time may take up to 7 seconds but i've experienced 3-4 at the most. its over voice how is it late 🙄 .
now the phones they have out so far suck thats why mines went back.
