I need to know if its possible to make push notifications without use the APNS.
And if it can be done, what are the best options?
Web server ->pushNotification-> Device
What about the VoIP apps? --> Can we push notification without using APNs?
Thanks.
No, there is no way to use Push notification without APNS. This is restriction from Apple and is documented here
No you can not push notification to a device without using Apple's push notification service.
It is not possible to display push notifications for your application in the same way that the built in push notifications appear without using the Apple Push Notification Service.
You may be able to set up some kind of web socket-based solution, but that will not work when your app is in the background, thus defeating the point.
Check out Urban Airship

I would like to use Push Notifications for my iOS app. What is the best resource that shows on how to implement this service? Also whats tools are available so I could try a simple Push Notification.
I'd recommend Urban Airship because it is free for a certain amount of Push Notifications, and they provide a guide on getting it setup.
Does any one know what are the possible APNS providers around? I need to develop push notification and for that i need to choose one like Urban Aiship or Mono Push so i would like to have list of those providers.
Can any one help?
Please also let me know how can i send customer specific notifications.
Thanks,
Jigar
I know this isn't really a direct answer to your question, but I'd like to say that I recommend you go with Urban Airship for your push needs.
I definitely understand the desire to "comparison shop," but UA is proven and is a defacto leader in the space. With something as mission critical as push notifications, the safe money is with the biggest and most stable offering available.
Is it possible to broadcast push notifications without services like Urban Airship?
Thanks.
Certainly, but you need to implement the entire infrastructure on your own.

Edit: You're emphasizing "broadcast" in your question. Urban Airship doesn't do anything special, other than tracking every single device token that has been registered in the lifetime of the application, as well as tracking those tokens which Apple has told it to turn off. The broadcast feature is just them utilizing all that data to send a batch of pushes.
It's all doable on your own, but it's a lot of work. This is why services like Urban Airship exist.
It's easy to set up the backend using this and Rails.
I m trying to implement Push Notifications in Iphone SDK 4.0.I have done up to the point of generating Token for device.I don't know how to proceed further.I need example to test Push Notification.
Thanks
No easy answer for this, but you might want to start with the programming guide (link below). Be aware that you'll also need a server to generate the push notifications - you could enlist a 3rd party service for this - like Urban Airship
