   Hello Jimmy,   
      
    JA>Found a smart phone walkie talkie app that is kinda cool. It's also   
    JA>virtual, but you can use it around the world 'public' or you can   
    JA>make a private 20 character code and share that code with your   
    JA>friends and use it as a PTT walkie talkie for a group - that's   
    JA>kinda cool!   
      
   Dunno where you found the term 'Walkie Talkie' but hand-helds are called   
   Handie Talkies.   
      
   Walkie talkies used inthe WW II were back pack units carried by one or   
   two men depending on size and weight of the units. The battery pack was   
   in the second back pack.   
      
   Handie talkies were hand-held units, usually running on 30 MHz on   
   internal batteries.   
      
   You see, I was born before the WW II and therefore know the terms.   
      
      
   Have a good Easter,
