#4, cingular's position for the past few years on ptt has been that if it's not as good as nextel/sprint's offering, it's staying on the shelf.
for the past few years, handset technology + appropriate 3rd party software has been the issue.
handset technology has progressed, no longer an issue.
for 3rd party software, cingular feels they have a reliable partner.
the current issue with ptt is that certain nortel switches need to be upgraded, so that when multiple subscribers receive the ptt call, the information in the call record is correct so that the billing applications know who made that call. Currently, on certain switches, the number returned contains all the numbers of people who received that call.
once these switches have been upgraded, then ptt will roll out.
Note: this also impacts several other product offerings ready for rollout.
if you are waiting for this service, please hold on a little longer, you won't be disappointed!
