Has anyone started using the T2T yet? If they have how do you like it and is
it worth it.
Thanks

T2T is working in east Tennessee.. So far no problems. I do have a small
gripe about the audio quality during a T2T call..

    If your entire family already has unlimited mobile to mobile
minutes, what added benefit would Touch2Talk give you?

Probable none, but it makes it easier to make a quick call is all that I can
see.

Simple convenience. If you have a question like "what was that guys name you
mentioned" then its much faster and easier to beep-ask-hear-done rather than
dial-wait for connect-ring, ring, ring-cordial small talk-ask-listen-done.

    Heck, I've got my entire family on speed dial now, so I just
push a button and am connected in a few rings.  When they hear the
phone beep, there not going to answer it any faster than they do when
they hear it ring.  And my phone doesn't require small talk with my
family to ask a question.  
    If Touch2Talk was free it would be OK, but I can't see any
benefit worth paying for.

Not to mention its a pathetic phone, a single choice, non-flip, that they offer
in my region (some Kyocera). I am mere weeks from bring through with Alltel due
to limiting, stifling hardware choices. As in few and far between.

Clearly the large hardware manufacturers head straight for the
volumes...Sprint, Verizon, to a less degree AT&T, and others.  Alltel simply
gets the dumps and lagging technology.

'Nuff is 'nuff.  If Alltel offered discounted rates plans to offset the less
choices, that would be one thing, but they are among the highest rate plans in
our area.

ALLTEL's T2T technology is only months old. It is unlike any of the
other providers. When T2T was first rolled out it worked, unlike other
providers. It's new, manufactures take time to make new phones with
new technology. You being from a computer back ground should know all
of this anyway. What more would you want in a phone that ALLTEL
doesn't offer? Camera...... got it, two way.......got it, palm
pilot.......got it,  ring tones, games, news, sports, tools,
everything others offer, ALLTEL offers. Granted it might take a couple
of months before it comes out, but it works. And it works good. Like
T2T, it took ALLTEL about 4 months to roll this out. The day it did, I
had the phone and it worked. I agree that the phone isn't up to par
with Nextel's but who cares the service is better, and the phone isn't
that bad.
