Listing ID #3060978

A Walkie Talkie is a mobile device that allows verbal communication across short distances. Originally developed during World War II -- and was made for communication and command purposes in the armed forces, however in more modern times, its use has become increasingly popular among the emergency services as well as construction sites.
Advantages of Walkie Talkies :

1. Essentially a Free Means of Communication - when it comes to talking on and using a Walkie Talkie it is completely free of use -- there are no monthly contracts, no roaming fees, no license fees etc. Once you have bought the Walkie Talkie and supplied it with the battery power, from there on in you are free to use it as you please.
2. Direct Instant Communication - unlike a cell or mobile phone, there is no need to wait for it to ring and connect -- a walkie talkie provides you with instant and simple (no need to remember numbers etc.) communication, both ways -- to and from.
3. Emergencies and Safety - because of the above feature, walkie talkies are a perfect means of communication device in scenarios that require a plan of action, hence useful in emergency fire situations etc. They are can also be put to practical use on a less severe platform -- in businesses etc.
4. They are Good Bit of Fun (Especially For the Kids) - they are a pretty nifty toy too, especially for kids who are just a bit too young for a mobile, simple and easy to use, they can play all sorts of games with their friends etc.
5. Convenient - in some cases a walkie talkie may simply prove to be more convenient than that of a mobile or cell phone, if the distance is only short and with the need for communication, then you may find you are better off with a walkie talkie than that of a cell phone as you are saving on money.
6. Relatively Cheap - you can buy a decent walkie talkie for a pretty good price as well, averaging around the rupees 8000/- mark -- you can get your hands on a fairly decent pair. Obviously there are also the more expensive models going up to ruprees 40000/- + that offer features such as  a better range (up to 10+ miles) and a clearer clarity.
7. Modern Day Walkie Talkies - no longer are Walkie Talkies heavy and rather ugly to look at -- the modern day walkie talkies are good looking, ergonomic and light -- great for practical every day use.
8. Simple and Easy to Use - another rather obvious positive of a Walkie Talkie is that it is really easy to use, all that is needed to communicate, is to press a single button. Compared to that of a mobile where several (perhaps complicated) interactions are needed in order to get hold of the person you are wanting, hence a Walkie Talkie can prove to be a useful device for those who have mobility issues and for example only really need to get hold of their carer.
