Nokia E65 - Push to talk

Push to talk

You can use push to talk to have a conversation with one person or with a group of people, or to join a channel. A channel is

like a chat room: you can call the channel to see if anyone is online. The channel call does not alert the other participants; the

participants just join the channel and start speaking with each other.
In push to talk communication, one person talks while the other participants listen through the built-in loudspeaker. Participants

take turns responding to each other. Because only one participant can talk at a time, the maximum duration of a speech turn

is limited. For details of the speech turn duration for your network, contact your network operator or service provider.

Remember to hold the device in front of you during a push to talk call so you can see the display. Speak towards the microphone,

and do not cover the loudspeaker with your hands.
Phone calls always take priority over push to talk.
Before you can use push to talk, you must define the push to talk access point and push to talk settings. You may receive the

settings in a special text message from the service provider that offers the push to talk service.
