Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any news or knowledge if T-Mobile will add ptt feature to its celluar phone service. T-MO is the only major celluar service that doesnt have ptt or hasnt released any information on future ptt service. I Am 95% sure Cingular, Nextel, Verzion, and Sprint have ptt or will have ptt available in the NEAR future (Cing.) . Thanks in advance for posts. -Andrew

They will most likely wait until they get EDGE up and running first. Haven't heard any plans yet, but if they take the approach most GSM carriers are looking at, they will run it on the data side, and EDGE would support it better.

dont you think t-mobile will be loosing alot of customers once cingular has ptt. it will be the only one without ptt, the feature that attracts allot of customers to nextel and sprint. i want t-mo to have ptt so badly lol!

I.anyway why is verizons ptt so slow compared to nextels?

II.does sprint have a good ptt like nextel or a poor one like verzizon?

Nextel's PTT will always be quicker due to technology used. Nextel's PTT is a separate system - hardware driven and separate channels. Verizon's and Sprint's PTT is a software driven solution. It will never be as fast as Nextel's.

I heard a rumour that a subsequent over the air upgrade of the Sidekick II would give it PTT....

But again I Can't remamber where i read/heard this,

And, it was only for the Sidekick II..... ☹️
