    Sprint PCS is apparently getting closer to launching its planned
    push-to-talk service, as a newly approved mobile phone from Sprint handset
    provider Sanyo features what appears to be a dedicated PTT button.

    The Federal Communications Commission recently approved the new Sanyo phone,
    the SCP-5500. The FCC must certify all radio communications equipment.

    If its anything like their PCS Internet service, the latency will be
    comparable to calling from Mars.

    When using my phone as a modem I get fast character echo when I'm
    ssh'ing in to my internet hosts.

    I've read the reviews of Verizon Wireless' push to talk, and
    understand its latency is very high. I can't even get local Verizon
    Wireless people at trade shows to even demo it, so I can judge for
    myself!

    So, since you've tested both Sprint PCS and Verizon Wireless' PTT,
    please give us latency numbers for both, including initial call setup
    time.

    Thank you!
