Software allows walkie-talkie-like international talk
Fastmobile's Fastchat offers a downloadable walkie-talkie feature for cell phones. "Nextel and Motorola pioneered the use of cell phones as walkie-talkies using a special "push-to-talk" button on the side of the handset. The other major wireless carriers now plan to introduce the increasingly popular service for their subscribers. But even when all carriers offer it, users will only be able to walkie-talkie with other subscribers to the same cell phone company. With Fastchat, subscribers to different cellular companies in this country and abroad can do so. They don't even need a phone equipped with a special button because the service uses the phone's regular buttons. Fastmobile's Fastchat, automatically downloads to your phone through a wireless transmission after you sign up, either at Fastmobile's Web site or through a chain of retail wireless stores called American Connection".
