nextel has exclusive rights to Qchat
http://mrtmag.com/mag/radio_pushtotalk/ »
"Nextel itself has purchased exclusive rights to a CDMA 1X VoIP solution from Qualcomm, known as Qchat, even though the company has yet to announce any intentions to migrate to a CDMA-based 3G technology. Nextel reports that it is working hard to get Qchat to reach call set-up delays of less than three seconds, according to a recent research report from Merrill Lynch. Nextel officials insist that three seconds is the minimum latency acceptable."
(fyi, nextel said at the conference call as well as i reported from the CTIA it was 1.5 seconds)

i am responding to your posts. i would rather copy and paste then say something stupid LIKE YOU DO!
it is developed by nextel and qualcomm so hence it is owned by nextel. what was a better word was to say "exclusive use".
"the CDMA push-to-talk technology Nextel developed with Qualcomm Inc"

nextel18 said:I'll say it again...Nextel does not own Qchat. Qualcomm licenses it for use to Nextel.

they own the rights to qchat, and they developed it hence they own qchat for the time being until those rights of ownership expire. so hence, they own it. if no one else can use it, doesnt that mean they own it?
...
Qualcomm developed it.
Nextel signed a deal a few years back with Qualcomm for exclusive rights to deploy QChat in the U.S. It's fair to assume they did it just to keep Sprint and Verizon from using it, as much as keeping their own options open. Outside the U.S., other carriers are free to license QChat and use it on their 1xRTT release A networks.

well if one has exclusive rights, and no one else can use it, in reality it is kind of owning it.

nextel18 said:Qualcomm licenses the rights to Nextel to use Qchat. If Nextel owned Qchat, Qualcomm wouldn't be licensing the rights to Nextel. Are you getting this?

Does this mean that I own my wife?? I know when I got married that it was an exclusive binding contract between her and I and that there shall be no adultrous activity kinda like this whole Q-Chat thing. By the way, why does everyone have their panties in a bunch over a technology that isn't even being used by the public or could never be used at all??
...
yea, you own your wife. hahahha.
why not? technology is very interesting especially if it will come out in 2007-2008 time frame. it was used at the CTIA, which i belived that i gave my synopsis in here. it will be used.

People were praising EV DV and that technology is more dead that J-Lo's acting career.
...
yea, but why do you need EV_DV when you can use voip and things like that? ev-dv speeds are really the speeds of REV A for DO. hey as long as qualcomm continues to see royalties and revenue, i dont care, becuase i own stock. hahaha. i dont think people would be spending for REV O, REV A, and then DV. waste of money.
...
thanks for the clarification. many articles said that qualcom and nextel developed it together, but i didnt think so.
i was told that nextel had qchat rights internationally too.
i agree with : "It's fair to assume they did it just to keep Sprint and Verizon from using it, as much as keeping their own options open."

nextel18 said:So wait a minute. Rich says the very same thing I said and all of a sudden it's "thanks for the clarification"? Nextel may have had a hand in developing Qchat to fit their specifications...but that's not the same as owning the patents to the technology.

the international part:

(plus i was told by a few people i cant disclose on here)
"These agreements, which grant Nextel certain exclusive license rights in North America and several other international markets, are expected to enable Direct Connect Push to Chat functionality over wireless CDMA networks using a voice-over-IP architecture. The architecture will be designed to enable subscribers worldwide to talk with each other at the push of a button. In addition, the technology will be designed to support dynamic management of group membership by subscribers to enable users to add and remove participants at any time on their handsets.

Owning the rights mean that they have the exclusive ability to use it. Qualcomm owns it, therefore Nextel is using it. Exclusively.
...
😕
Well it seems that I might be missing something. From what I understand, QChat will only work w/handsets that are BREW based, and both Sprint and Nextel are JAVA based.
So my question is will they be planning to switch their OS, or has/will Qualcomm make changes to their code? According to Qualcomm, it is only availble to BREW based phones.

I am not sure about that. Maybe Rich Brome would know, or you can just ask Qualcomm, Nextel and Motorola yourself about that whole situation.
...
Well if someone can answer the question then that can determine Nextel's initial intention for purchasing a product that is not compatible w/their phones.
According to Qualcomm's website, QChat is only available to BREW based handsets. Therefore Nextel's license does not help their PTT service w/Sprint. Though the merger report did state a service improvement of PTT, but did not named the product that they would be using.
If these 2 companies do make changes to their OS then I can see 2 options.
1.) change OS from JAVA to BREW
- this would not be likely cuz it would suggest crippling phones w/bluetooth
- this is because of licensing fees to BREW products
- increasing price of phones and/or plans to compensate ...

why dont you email motorola, qualcomm, and nextel or you can ask Rich, becuase i dont know.
...
see. WHO CARES. If you wanna try and prove Muchdrama wrong, send him an email. This is the Verizon Wireless forum. Did anybody say "hey Nextel 18, can you please post something in the Verizon Wireless forum that doesn't have anything close to do with Verizon? Thanks that'd be great"
...
he was questioning that, so i wanted to put it on here. you are right that putting that on here wasnt neccessary, so that is my fault. it does deal with verizon though, becuase qchat will be verizon's competitor with their push to talk system.
so it does have something to do with verizon.

umm. ok well then I'll post something about Coca-Cola because Verizon customers probably drink it sometimes.

nextel18 said:Yeah, that's terribly stupid. Just like:
another stupid thing to say.
use common sense please.
1) Verizon doesn't use the 1900mhz band.
2) Nextel owns Qchat.
3) Cingular will not regain profitability for another 77 years.
And those are quotes, people.

oooo that is dorky....not that I can say much. My gf went to Disneyworld on spring break (I had to work 😢 ) and what did she bring me back as a souvenir but a Star Wars t-shirt. She also fenagled a way for one of her freinds who works at a local theatre to get me one of the Ep. III teaser posters when they came down.
Yeah, I'm a dork, but I'm a loved dork.
