Customers purchasing or upgrading to a new Nextel Direct Connect handset will continue to have the capability to connect instantly, coast-to-coast, with the community of more than 20 million existing Nextel Direct Connect subscribers on the world’s largest and fastest push-to-talk network.
Sprint plans to introduce several new Nextel Direct Connect handsets in early 2008. A selection of devices from Sprint’s leading manufacturers, with designs ranging from rugged phones that meet the rigors of military specifications to sleek new flip phones, will give customers new and exciting device choices with the same instant connection and reliability they have come to expect from Nextel Direct Connect. The new Nextel Direct Connect handsets are designed to offer new features, including online contact and group management, push-to-talk voicemail, a single number for voice and push-to-talk, and the nation’s largest mobile broadband data coverage.
