NTT DoCoMo 902i Walkie-Talkie PhoneNTT DoCoMo announced today the development of the new 902i series of 3G FOMA handsets. This series features a PushTalk walkie-talkie-style communication service along with other new services from DoCoMo, including the ToruCa information capture service, and the i-channel information update service.

PushTalk service on the FOMA packet-communications network lets you use the phone like a traditional walkie-talkie and bring back the old memory when mobile phones were not invented yet. You can use this service for simultaneous, one-way communication from one 902i user to as many as four other 902i users.

The premier PushTalk service, named PushTalk plus, is scheduled to be available on January 2006. It extends the number to simultaneous users, from 4 to 19 users. A specific group of people (such as a project team, work crew, etc.) can also be registered in the user directory under a single group entry.

Another feature is the automatic background upgrade whenever a new or updated phone software is available.
