Nokia 6101 / 6102
Cingular PTT on 3g UMTS (wcdma) 2100mhz ???
So how is 6102 is supposed to support PTT?
EDGE is running on 1900MHz. PTT is being implemented on EDGE.
And that's the highest that 6102 supports - it's not a UMTS/3G phone.
I know that Cingular is working on this, but right now PTT (Cingular's) is not implemented on UMTS/3G.
Reasoning?
How come there is PTT button on 6102 or even on SE Z500a-definitely doesn't gave 2100MHz – only EDGE.

Yes, maybe no provider would offer this service [on EDGE], BUT the phone was designed to have PTT functionality. So the designers of the phone knew how it was supposed to work should any provider indeed decide to offer a PTT service.
So, they ended up with developing a phone (6101/6102) that has EDGE on 1900MHz, and can do PTT.
And maybe you are right - Cingular would not offer PTT with this handset because maybe the PTT they are developing would be based on the UMTS platform. Or maybe they are not developing PTT at all. (Although it is unlikely, having all this buz Cingular reps have created around PTT)
The only thing that is definite is that 6101/6102 will support PTT if it is based on UMTS/2100MHz, and that if 6102 is to carry PTT fu...
