What is the difference between Nextel Direct Connect and Nextel Group Connect service?
A. With Direct Connect service you connect to one person at a time and can have a private conversation. All your users are loaded into the phonebook for easy one-touch access. With Group Connect you can set up multiple talkgroups and connect to as few as three people or as many as 100 people at once just by the push of a button. Grouptalk is very similar in use and function to traditional walkie talkie setups; you can get the message out to a large group of people in many different locations all at the same time. Nationwide grouptalk is now available to connect people across different cities (i.e.: New York, Miami, Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix and San Francisco) can all talk to each other, but the system is limited to a maximum of 35 users per talkgroup channel. Please call and speak with a rental specialist for details on all Sprint Nextel push-to-talk services.
