The Blackberry Curve iinfo is misleading, it says push to talk on phonearena's site, but that is for the gsm version. The Curve is only EVDO Rev 0, not REV A, so Q chat will not be supported, damn i wish it was that would be the phone, i carry a blackberry world edition and a nextel, be great to get down to one phone

well we're in the same position.. i mean the BlackBerry 7100i was the old answer to that and its still a relatively good phone but its time for an Instinct with PTT!...
When is Sprint going to smarten up and release QChat/ Direct Connect smartphones with QWERTY
keyboards. There is a vast, untapped market of small business operators who require both radio
contact (QChat/ Direct Connect) and on-call e-mail.
Couldn't agree with you more! I am eagerly awaiting the release of such a phone. I am a former Nextel customer that switched to Sprint because I needed a PDA/Smartphone with full QWERTY keyboard and I can't stand the Blackberry phones that Nextel has...they are aweful and do not offer the same features that I enjoy with my Palm Treo. If I could marry the phones together.....I would be perfectly content!
Just answered my own question. Q Chat is now available in Philadelphia. Blackberry Curve is Q Chat compatible and available for sale. Thank you Sprint!
