Nokia provides Push-to-Talk service to mobilkom austria

Nokia and Austrian mobile operator mobilkom austria have signed an agreement for the delivery of a Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) network solution. The deal includes the provision of PoC services, with Nokia to operate the PoC platform. The service is commercially available for mobilkom austria customers in Austria.

With push to talk, people can use their mobile phones like walkie-talkies, communicating with a selected group or with individuals at the push of a button. Both business and private users can benefit from this simple, direct communication. Push to talk is especially suited for cases where users need to communicate occasionally but repeatedly with the same group or individual.

“mobilkom austria is the innovation leader in Central and Southeast Europe. We introduced push to talk as it adds value for specific customer segments. We have selected Nokia as the partner for push to talk as it offers the strongest pre-OMA (Open Mobile Alliance) solution,” said Dr. Boris Nemsic, CEO mobilkom austria and COO Wireless Telekom Austria.
