Blackberry Q10 and Bell Push-to-Talk

Hello everyone. We are looking at using Bell's push to talk service but the list of BB compatible devices is only the Bold 9900, the Q5 and the Z30. We are deploying over 20k Q10s and was wondering if anyone would know if the app will be updated to support the Q10.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Strange the Q5 would be listed and not the Q10....

I looked on the Bell site and I only see BBOS devices listed and I didn't see it in BlackBerry World....
But as you are deploying over 20K devices, I'd contact you corporate rep and talk to them. For that many devices that could probable add the Q10 - if they have already got the app working on BB10. If BB10 isn't supported, then you are out of luck. Of course if you are using all BB Devices, BBM Voice could be an option.

Wouldn't one need a button for ptt?

My Z & Q10 do not have any button suitable for ptt.

Not sure what you tried to attach


Again I'd contact Bell and speak to your account representative to clarify what device can now and possible in the near future will work with PTT.

For that number of devices I would have asked for a demo model, as I've heard that not all software based PTT Services are equal...
