Hmm something different, or a step back to walkie talkies on another frequency

Used  them In Canda, all the company phones were set up for it and was actually pretty damn handy. SMS isnt popular over therte so it was a quick way of finding out in a 15 storey building where your staff have all gone :)

I dont think they saw them in the same light :)

I think a lot of UK phones support it but the operators dont. certainly my N80 does and I remeber bunnies N60 deing able to do it to.

Phones were Motorola V60s I think
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

Both our Nokias have PTT - but no operator seems to support it.
