Fantom Dynamics has been developing modular walkie talkie technology for the better part of a decade. Their latest release, Linc, turns your smartphone into a walkie talkie, and puts everything they spent all that time developing in the palm of your hand. Developed as part of the MotoMods system, the Linc attaches seamlessly to the back of any Moto Z phone because of the magnet, but Linc is designed to work with other phones via Bluetooth. Why would you want a walkie talkie in addition to your smartphone? Talking and texting without cell or WiFi service. Radio-over-Internet technology for worldwide coverage. GPRS tracking. NOAA weather radio. One to one or one to many communication with a 5-6 mile radius. VHF/UHF frequency bands. Emergency alert for beacon SOS. In other words, Linc gives you access to all the awesome features of a walkie talkie via your smartphone without bulking up your EDC to unbearable proportions.
