Another Sanyo PTT phone for Sprint

This is the latest phone that I launched. It's rugged and it's Ready Link or PTT-capable. Check it out here: http://www1.sprintpcs.com/explore/Ph...d=sanyoscp7300

It's alright, the best is yet to come still. "Mike" is my old boss from 5 years ago.

Where are all the PTT phones from Verizon? This is Sprint's 4th PTT phone. Something tells me Verizon is not so into their PTT.

Remember my comments last summer. Verizon is trying to beat "others" to the market....Sprint says "we will launch when it is ready, not to be the first."

Fotis is MIA. You'll have to go to Minnesota to catch up to him.

Sprint's PTT service is called Ready Link and it is nothing like Verizon's. It's actually better than Nextel's except it is not as instantaneous, so Nextel is a little faster in the back and forth conversation. Otherwise I think Ready Link has better phones and features. I don't know what happened to Verizon but all I keep hearing is bad stuff.

I think there are at least 3 new phones that will be perfect for the college consumer. One is a small inexpensive camera phone, another is your basic nearly-free phone, and the third is the 2004 model of last year's hottest seller.

I want a phone that is as thin as a credit card.

I hate having the phone bulge in my pocket, but I hate the belt clips even more.

So that, or I want the phone just somehow surgically implanted in my body, with a speaker in my thumb and mic on my pinkie finger
