Verizon Push To Talk vs. Nextel

This is Verizon's new PTT over CDMA Rev. A PTT service compared to my Nextel PTT phones. I am about to port all 6 of my Nextel's over to Verizon is is so good. Unfortunately my house borders inbetween 1 Rev. A and 2 EVDO Rel. 0 towers so it's not as quick as it will be once we get Rev. A on all towers. But where I do have Rev. A it's as quick as Nextel. But here it's pretty instant anyways on Rel. 0. Another great feature about it that is better than Sprint's QCHAT is that this service is backwards compatible to EVDO Rev. A/Rel. 0/1x so anywhere you have data coverage, you have PTT. Sprint's only works on their smaller Rev. A network. I had these phones working in less than 10 minutes without the struggle of the problems that some QCHAT users are experiencing. These are two Motorola V750 Adventures and on Nextel it's an i880 and an i850.

(Sorry about my voice sounding so bad, I just had a tonsillectomy not to long ago. I guess adults don't heal as quick as kids haha)

Q Chat is the shit i have a Evo and a Sanyo Pro-700 and i forward all my calls to the Pro-700 when im working. Because of the hybrid(Sprint/Nextel), its the best of both worlds. They do still sell Hybrids at sprint.
