More people using PTT on the bus, the train and in public. More of that annoying noise that signals every voice transmission.

Kevin, I don’t think you spend a lot of time on public transportation. But it is bad enough to listen to one half of a conversation that is loud and often rude, and long. Add to it that incessant buzz or whatever and becomes unbearable. It might be important on a construction site but it should be banned elsewhere.

The company working on this product should come up with alternate signaling arrangements to not add to the cacophony we already experience.

I’ve been using HeyTell for a while now, and its platform independent.
