Talk on the street is that SPCS hopes to have this up and available by
the holidays this year ... Nothing's etched in stone though.

Sprint is supposed to be using technology similar to that of Verzion
(VoIP) so it could be like Verizon, slower than Nextel.

Typical useless answer from a Sprint employee who wants to pretend he
knows everything about everything.

It's typical of Rob, anyway.

Wut more do you want, he answered they guys question.. The guy asked if
Sprint PCS with have a "Push to Talk" type service.. And he basically
said yes.. He said there has been a lot of talk about it, and that it is
coming.. what more do you guys want? A date?? good luck! Even if he
knows the date, I doubt he will risk getting himself fired telling
everyone...Yuo guys really need to stop fighting so much on here, what
is the point of it.. it aint going to solve anything.

Neither does posting ambiguities.

And mabey it will be slower than nextel.. so what, nothing is perfect..
if ya dont like it, then dont get it. simple and easy. I believe though,
and this is what I have HEARD. that the reason Sprint has not come out
with it yet is becuz they do not want to introduce it UNTIL they are
under the sub-second delay.. Sooooo *IF* that is true, then HOPEFULLY
there wont be any over 1 second delays with "Readylink"...

Try to think positive in life.. being so negative SUCKS!!

Typical useless answer from [any usenet poster] who wants to pretend
he knows everything about everything.
Phill., have you ever heard that line used before? I bet you have
Pretty much details the content of your post also.
Now we just need someone to get involved and tell us about how Sprint
will mischarge everyone for the service, how they will overload the
towers in your area so no one can use them (but they are somehow still
overloaded), and how their contract will reset back to two years
everytime they use the PTT feature and the repeating activation
charges everyone will get billed four times for.
That would pretty much fit just about every thread here in the past 3
months.

Well, gee whiz, seeing as how it *might* be proprietary information...

I don't suppose either of you realize that at least one Verizon Wireless
employee was fired for releasing PTT info on the Verizon newsgroup before
the launch.

(a) He may not have details.
(b) He may have them but not be allowed to give them out.

I was simply stating that Phillipe said that those type answers were typical
of Sprint employees. I think some Sprint employees are very helpful, i.e.
SprintPCS Tech aka Tech Geek. He's professional and helpful. I was just
saying that Phillipe's assessment was typical of Rob's posting, not all
Sprint employees'.

Better than being an apologist, instantly posting that customer care had
improved based on the lack of complaints on a freaking usenet forum.
