Or, do you know when we should expect some new phones from them?
...
Talked to a Bell Mobility rep yesterday.
He said that they are a couple of months away from Push-to-talk phones.
Telus currently has a similar service with "Mike" but this is a newer technology.
Tony
ps. What's a "couple of months" in retail speak?

I know bell just brought out the Kyocera slider phones.
About Telus' Mike, it's crap...it's analog walkie-talkie, GET A PLAN WITH MOBILE TO MOBILE!!!
The Mikes are a joke, though they are durable, they are not worth their weight in coffee.

Hmmm ... Analog walkie Talkie ??? EEEEE ... hmmm not really educated on cell phone technology are you ? Mike ( IDEN ) only work in Digital since it is a digital only handset. It uses TDMA/IDEN technology developped by Motorola. Though the coverage is a bit limited to the big centers, since it is aimed at buisness clientele, it offers you the best R.F in cell phone technology at the moment...

Odds are highly against bell ever introducing the mike network. Telus in Ontario is the only carrier that offers the mike system. Due the limited niche market, for two carriers to offer it it would be illogical. and bell use a CDMA net work not TDMA. they are very similar but different.
