Get ready for PTT
November 11th people. Day of days. It's going to be known as PTT-day. They'll make video games of it called Phone of Honor and Call of Kodiak. It will be a national holiday.
I saw the LG 7200 demonstration for the second time in a Tucson corporate store this weekend. It sounded beautiful.
Agents remember: The only way for PTT to be successful is if we PUSH it! Tell every potential customer about it, throw them into push-to-talk. All family plans should have them. PTT on other networks fails because they have no customers that use it. We MUST change that. Put your PTT signage on and tell all your customers about it.

Wooohooo. Lets hope this improves the decline in subscriber growth that cingular has been experiencing. I don’t think so though. (i think umts/hsdpa might though)
...
UMTS/HSDPA will change that as well as the 2 new RAZR phones coming to Cingular. I am sure they will market the V3i (and the v3x when it comes out) more heavily than they have marketed anything since the merger.
...
again, you cant say it will. we are all guessing. we cant assume that they will do well becuase of push to talk and umts/hsdpa as well as the razr phones. cingular came out with the razr phone and their subscriber growth has been declining. that means that any new product might not do well based on what is happening.
so dont say it will becuase you have no idea. 🙂

Cingular came out with the RAZR and they beat Verizon in net ads that quarter. 🙄
I can tell you that in my market, there are many people that I speak with that have Verizon and are planning on leaving as soon as their contract is up and going to Cingular. I, personally, will keep my Verizon service until Cingular becomes more competitive with their data plans.
UMTS/HSDPA combined with the new RAZR phones (assuming strong marketing of the RAZR phones) will draw people to Cingular. That is fact. How many has yet to be seen.

provide links and language to support your fact. (anyway their subscriber growth has been declining. so perhaps the hype over the razr is over)
it doesnt matter in your market.. it matters nationwide...

hmm.. you say assuming and a fact.. pretty interesting... kinda contradicting yourself a bit...
again, you cant say that it will becuase u have no idea what-so-ever. none of us knows until it has been released on a nationwide roll out and we will see what happens in 1-4 quart...

Shows that Cingular released the Motorola RAZR V3 in November of 2004.
http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/micro_stories.pl?A ... »
Shows that Cingular added 1.8 million customers in the 4th quarter of 2004.
http://investor.verizon.com/news/20050127/20050127.pdf »
That PDF, slide 11, shows that Verizon added 1.7 million customers in the 4th quarter of 2004.
Thus, the quarter that Cingular brought out the RAZR, they topped Verizon in net ads, as I originally said.
Are you done yet?

what about that in quarter 4 of 2004 they added att wireless' subscriber growth towards cingular's? what about what were the actual sales of the razr v3 tht the 1.8 million subscribers got? you have no indication, unless documented, that they got 1.8 million customers who got the razr v3..
unless you can provide for me evidence to support yoru claim that becuase of they got the razr that they got 1.8 million customers to get the razr.. in addition to what part of that 1.8 million belonged to att wireless and what belonged to cingular...

i was asking him to do that. (not sure why you are bringing sprint involved in a discussion about cingular)
he mentioned a fact and i am trying to see if he can back it up.. not a big deal.. if i would have said that then i would prove it, however, i didnt mention it.. he did...
aww.. of course.. they say a fact they must prove it.. if they cant prove it then their opinion isnt sound and rational.. not sure if you like to think, but i do.

I proved everything you asked me to prove. I offerred explanations. That was not good enough for you. I am done. It isn't my fault that you can't understand simple english enough to understand a point that someone has made over and over again.

lol insults now? you have been insulting me for ever lol..
it wasnt an insult by the way.. i was just indicating that the statement was worthless and stupid.. it wasnt an insult TO YOU.
i have no claim to back up, but you do.
you are done? lol aww. giving up already... a quiter.. aww.
i am continuing to ask you about the declining of subscriber growth right after quarter 4 to quarter 3 of 2005. can you explain that or are you done? lol.

why would anyone that has verizon/sprint/tmobile be in this forum anyway?
is there a reason why they have to come in here and post comparisons between "their" company and Cingular?
Can any carrier beat this price?
450 daytime minutes with rollover $39.99
7 p.m. nights/ weekends $7.00
Free mobile to mobile $0.00
Service "off" the interstate $0.00

It is really impossible to talk to you. I give you what you ask for and that isn't good enough. You asked for proof that Cingular beat Verizon in net ads in the quarter that they brought out the RAZR. I provided that. Now you aren't happy with getting what you asked for. 🙄
AT&T wireless was LOSING customers going into the merger. Their net ads were NEGATIVE in the quarters leading to the merger.

Maybe you should read that again....slowly....and, I know this one is going to be hard for you, but try and comprehend it this time.
I never said that there were 1.8MM people that bought the RAZR. I said that the marketing that Cingular used on the RAZR brought people into the store just to see it, and then they bought whatever phone that they could afford since most, at that time, could not afford the RAZR.
Did ya get it that time????

Cingy would have to get a hold of a good couple of commercial accounts from Nextel. You know, steel them away, wait till their contracts are about ready to expire and contact them saying how great your new PTT solution is vs Nextel. Well, you wouldn't be able to get the government away from 'em and probably not the construction companies and it's doubtful even the IT companies but there is still a lot of market out there.
...
yea, i dont think they can steal some commercial clients or any of nextel's clients cept perhaps consumers, which boost mobile has done a pretty nice job on.
if sprint and verizon couldnt, cingular cant either.
i think cingular has to focus on regular consumers.. not sure if businesses, governement, construction and others who demand immediate ptt wont go to cingular becuase its not immediate like nextel's.
time will tell.
i am interested to see the marketing blitz cingy will have..

should be interesting...
my personal view is that i think that this is a waste of roll out for cingular... i think they should focus more on their roll out of hsdpa/umts and their coverage..
remember, kodiak is over voice so if there are problems on the voice channels on the towers, push to talk will face tons of problems. it will also face tons of problems throughout this integration situation...
we will see.. 🙂

PTT is ntoa waste of Cingular's time unless it does not work. It would do too much damage to Cingular in the eyes of high ARPU business customers and consumers. If it works it will give cingular a nice jumpstart. I found out I cannot post on this site anymore. Peace out

So to flip in back on you (just as you did to Sean) why don't you provide links and proof for your statement.
Why don't you provide a link for us to show proof and whatnot that these problems you imagine are integration issues?
...
My question is since all Kodiak is is software and runs through voice, will they install the PTT software on other phones. The initial PTT phones are not attractive at all. It wouldnt b that hard, all almost all of a phone manufacturer use the same or a similar OS for their whole line. For example motorola uses almost the same OS for their V series phones. And the PocketPC phones wouldnt b a problem because its a very widely used platform

You are pathetic, you are quite obviously comparing Cingular to Nextel. Why not compare cingular's ptt phones to nextel?

All in all I would rather my phone just ring. PTT is great for consturction workers and those who need to talk to groups. But for the individual I do not see the allure. Especially if one has to give up full featured phones for the PTT phones.

i agree thats why i say that they just install the software on the user's existing phone when they sign up for ptt. Imagine buying the new HTC and finding out that you cant do PTT w/ it. Cingular gotta be smarter than that.

Well I am of the opposite opinion. I do not want or need PTT and I would rather they do not load my phone nor pay extra for useless SW mucking up the works. I don't see where PTT is any big deal. People that absolutely need it already have it.
Can't imagine being in public places with all these Two way very public conversations going on. It's bad enough to have to hear one side of a conversation constantly. There is no discretion any more with phone conversations.

I don't think its going to be quite as big as you are hoping, sorry man. With only a whopping 2 phones to choose from and no compatibility with any of our other phones our customers are currently using, I doubt seriously we'll have many new additions because of PTT at this point. ☹️

Imagine getting Xerox's entire national technical force though. There are plenty of business and contractor accounts that can be courted. You guys are comparing this feature to MP3 Players and Cameras. I do not think Cingular is looking at PTT quite as another toy for tots.
...
Actually the post I was responding to mentioned something about selling PTT to customers with Family Talk. Trying to sell our new PTT to Family Talk customers would be a waste of time since kids would not be satisfied having a walkie talkie which none of their friends could even communicate with and no camera/mp3 action either. ☹️
