I have been using this phone yonks even whilst in Afghan and Iraq, now UK

Im not selling these by the way, but feel anyone who uses their phone close to neighbours etc, as you get free calls within a 3 km radius or more depending on area, any sim card works and can even send free texts to someone else using same phone, can be used as a walkie talkie.

 

Really great phone

Extremely dull looking phone. It's not even a Smart-phone is it? Blackberry messenger allows you to send free texts to other blackberry users and they aren't difficult to unlock.

si, wasnt meaning for techno wise.

What im trying to say is that you dont even have to have a sim in it, and can use what style you want, there are various styles, my personal phone is top stuff cams 12 mega etc, but dont really use all the apps, for example, when wife is shops or at the gym, we can talk for free no sim, 100% crystal clear, my new one that will be here weekend also has cam and many more apps like gps etc, still no sim required unless you want to of course, has apps same as some blackberrys which im writing this on now, also has apps to open garage doors contol tv etc, all for £49,

With Blackberry you have to also make sure the other person you are texting also has a blackberry right??

also with the Nextels you can track for FREE where any of the other Nextel users are, subject to you giving them permision with user number.

Oh right, I see. Bit like the old Dolphin handsets...if you remember them. They were like a 2 channel radio as well I think.

ooh showing your age,

 

No not really, you dont have to stand near any point etc

 

Shame your not local,

Have you ever watched american chopper??? If so they used them phones, they all motorola, and here in uk Metropolitain police and BTP use them also, but on a system called airwaves, same handsets, Trust me!!

 

But anyway, just a heads up if anyone going camping or alike there fantastic, I got a few of them, not for sale, i left one in my car on under rear seat using a power lead, i can see where my car is all time!! (get it) wink wink,

heres a link to one of my old ones on youtube, bit boring but gives you a heads up, these are going to be big soon, but when the uk ones spec come out range will be limited to 500 metres

 

thats why i got mine from states. well flea bay

500M so it is like a walkie talkie then

500M so it is like a walkie talkie then

I think you may have missed some of the posts,

 

The one they want to bring and sell in uk will be limited to 500m yes, not the ones you can buy from the states though, read the posts,

 

also ones on sale here, like some of the nokias with ptt you need a sim card and pay a subscription,

 

However these are much clearer than any walkie talkie

500M so it is like a walkie talkie then

 

yes but as he said you can chuck a sim in it and has it as a phone to,

 

the problem with these sort of things (like the blackberry as i have one too) you never have enough people who have blackberrys to use the free calls/texts, i have 3 friends with blackberrys, but there not that close so i dont speak to them that often so the benefits of this phone are hardly used.

 

 

unless every one buyes one, there not that much of a use,

 

 

however i do like that tracking thingy!!! i suppose you dont have to pay a subscription to these tracking companies then?!?

you beat me to the reply!! lol

Well if you have apps on your phone you can add ptt and you wont have to pay if i ptt you,

on nearly all phones you have a option that says reply via same message centre, well you lock onto mine , voila,,

the nokia e65 also has this option, and if you know how to use it, you use the camera phone as the ptt button,

and be honest £45 is good, and water proof,

 

good for cruises, no subscription reqd for tracking,
