[TrunkCom] scanner recommendations?

[Jeff Kenyon]

For some reason, I favor the portable versions of scanners. I haven't had a tabletop scanner in years. What is the learning curve like when going from a traditional scanner with banks and channels to this newer type format?

I am wondering that if at some point I should get the portable or the desktop with the I Phone app?  It will be interesting to note what advantages and/or features will be the most accessible.  With regard to the desktop with the app will the app work with the cellular network with regard to monitoring/control?  I know that the literature I read mentioned other wifi networks that it will work on.
