Just looked on blackberry apps and found a walkie talkie type app for £5.99 this is an app I'v always wanted and before paying for it was just checking if the super guys on wiki can help me find it for free.
Cheers for the help in advance

Didn't Nokia have similar with their built in PTT feature.

Seems Walkie Talkie is all BB are good for atm.

Tell us more about the app, how does it work? As I can't get my head around how it could.

You talk into the phone and someone else who is somewhere else can hear you then they talk back and you can hear them...
I don't understand why everyone wouldn't want this walkie talkie app for their mobile talking device...

Radio waves? Mobile data? Doubtful. I dunno.

Push2Talk allows you to use your Blackberry® Smartphone as a walkie talkie.
You only need to pay once, no hidden fees.
Push2Talk uses Blackberry® PIN messages to communicate, however, Push2Talk does not simply record voicenotes and send them after they are recorded, Push2Talk uses an advanced algorithm to transfer your voice while it is being recorded, simulating a real walkie talkie feeling and performance.
Push2Talk allows you to send messages of 10 seconds in length at a time, and thanks to its unique algorithm, Push2Talk can transfer your messages with very small delays, only a few seconds in good connection.

Sounds network dependant. I can send voice recordings using data through what's app or hullo mail. I wouldn't waste £6 on it.
