Former Nextel execs embark on another PTT venture—and possibly broadband—with Pacific DataVision
Pacific DataVision, led by former Nextel Communications co-founders Morgan O’Brien and Brian McAuley, announces that the company has acquired all 900 MHz spectrum previously owned by Sprint. The company plans to offer enterprise push-to-talk dispatch services—targeting critical-infrastructure entities—in U.S. markets beginning next year and will seek FCC approval to use its 3×3 MHz of spectrum to support broadband offerings in the future.
