Sprint hopes to launch push-to-talk products

Sprint Corp.'s chief executive said Wednesday push-to-talk products
remained a fourth-quarter opportunity for the company.

Speaking at a Goldman Sachs conference, Gary Forsee said the Overland
Park-based company was in talks with several national partners to
introduce push-to-talk products, which are products that allow
customers to use wireless phones much like a walkie-talkie device.
Forsee said Sprint intended to launch multiple devices in conjunction
with several manufacturers.

Bell Mobility said earlier this month that it is readying its own
version of push-to-talk on its CDMA network. The service was the
subject of a fresh news report yesterday. Bell is working with partner
Sprint Corp. in the United States, which plans to start the service
this year.
