Verizon Wireless today announced that Push to Talk will be available for the BlackBerry® Tour™ 9630 smartphone on March 30. It will be available for both BlackBerry® Internet Service and BlackBerry® Enterprise Server customers using the BlackBerry Tour smartphone.

“Extending Push to Talk to the BlackBerry Tour from Verizon Wireless offers business customers a single device for instant communication plus the enterprise-grade security and robust business communications capabilities people have come to expect from a BlackBerry smartphone from Verizon Wireless,” said Mark Bartolomeo, vice president — global enterprise marketing for Verizon Wireless. ”These features, coupled with the nation’s most reliable wireless network, mean customers have the ultimate in productivity tools.”

Customers can add Push to Talk to their service plans by calling 1-800-VZW-4BIZ or online via My Business Account at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon or Verizon Enterprise Center at https://enterprisecenter.verizonbusiness.com. BlackBerry Internet Service customers — typically consumers — may request the service by calling 1-800-2 JOIN IN or visiting the My Verizon site online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon.

Once Push to Talk is added to their service plans, customers can download the application from the Application Center or through VZStart on their handsets. The convenience key on the left side of the device will automatically become the Push to Talk button when the application is downloaded.
