iFollow Push-to-Talk©

The idea of Push-to-Talk (PTT) is to let mobile users
speak with and listen to each other without dialing
and establishing a phone call. The Push-to-Talk user
experience is similar to a walkie-talkie.

Push-to-Talk in the industry
Until now, such user experience was only available
with iDEN networks, where it is usually limited to
predefined groups, e.g., a corporate company. Now,
with GPRS networks speeding up, the Push-to-Talk
user experience can become available to the general
mobile community. PTT is considered as one of the
"hot" news of 2003. During the 3GSM conference,
Ericsson, Nokia and Siemens announced the
standardization of PTT.
