Southern Linc Mototalk app for iPhone

At my place of employment we use ptt radios through southern linc. Since I've been there that's all we have used but have found a new alternative when one of my bosses went to upgrade his radio/cell phone last week.

Southern Linc offers an iPhone app called Mototalk that will turn your iPhone into a ptt radio that will work on your carrier's network and/or on wifi.

I believe that some android phones come with a motolink app but I'm not sure if this is the same thing or not.

So anyways, supposedly it is a $10/month flat fee if you transfer your existing ptt number to the motolink app. In my case, my boss said they pay about $30/month for my radio alone with no cell phone coverage as I don't exactly need it since I'm always in the office.

I've been giving it a test drive for a couple days now and like it a lot. Plus it gets the radio off my hip so that's a plus.

Just wanted to pass the info along for those of you who might have to use ptt for work. If it weren't for needing to communicate with contractors and customers we wouldn't be using ptt radios but that's all a part of it.
