Motorola and Nextel Communications are taking their push-to-talk (P2T) to foreign markets as rival carriers such as Verizon Wireless and Sprint PCS fight to launch rival P2T services in the U.S. Yesterday Motorola said that Jordanian carrier Fastlink will be the first carrier to launch P2T in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region. The carrier agreed to use Motorola's GPRS-based P2T solution rather than the iDEN-based solution used by Nextel. Fastlink's new service will launch in 2004. Motorola also has GPRS-based P2T trials with other carriers in the EMEA region. No financial details of the Motorola, Fastlink deal were released. Nextel Communications' Mexican subsidiary, Nll Holdings, announced plans to launch P2T service in Tijuana and Baja California, Mexico. No word yet when the Mexican service will launch.

After a long fight Microsoft looks poised to make a major breakthrough in the mobile phone market. Samsung, the world's No. 4 handset maker, will release a phone using the company's Smartphone software by the end of the year and Motorola, the No. 2 phone maker, is rumored to be working on a Microsoft-powered phone, supposedly scheduled for release this year, too. The releases could be huge for Microsoft allowing the company to achieve major market penetration. Until now Microsoft has relied on partner HTC to make phones using its mobile OS. The company also formed a partnership with U.K. firm Sendo, but that partnership fell apart late last year when Sendo accused Microsoft of giving proprietary technology to HTC. The smart phone OS market is currently dominated by European firm Symbian. For more on the latest Microsoft phone news: - check out this piece from USA Today
