Hi

Yesterday evening I spent some “quality time” drinking beer with a portion of the US Army. Based on that
(and many previous sessions …) they don’t just need to store the radios. They also need to store the people
who know how to use them. If it does not work like an iPhone … not supported ….

That’s not all bad by the way. A *lot* of decisions got made between 6 pm and 2AM via the iPhone. (This after 
a full 12 hour day of work). That would have been *much* harder to do with the “old stuff”. Not so easy to instantly 
communicate with people spread over 12 time zones via R-390.
