Does anyone actually use this function on their Nokia's?

Just have had it on my 6680 for the past year and never once used it. Anyone have any idea how to set it up or anything like that?

Im on the O2 network if thats any use.

Cheers.

i didn't know it was actually active on UK networks.. most phones just have the option removed (i cant see it on my 6280 on tmob)

Yup, just found out from a guy at O2 that its not supported on any UK Network due to licensing costs.

Oh well, another useless feature rammed onto my phone.

Used my 6680 PTT whenever i was in Canada/America, its a shame they dont allow it here as its quite good for staying in touch.

What does it actually do?

I think its some sort of walkie talkie like service that can be run on the mobile phone network. Quite big in america from what i've read.

I thought orange offered push to talk in the uk, sure I read something about it on the register or somewhere similar.

The service is offered on Orange, under the name 'Talk Now', on both contract and PAYG.
