Stu changed his mind.

I reckon it would be crap for big day out climbing as it only works when the following all happen:

- you remember to bring along your phone
- your phone is charged up
- your phone is switched on
- you remember to bring along your gotenna
- your gotenna is charged up
- your buddy remembers to bring along their phone
- your buddy remembers to charge up their phone
- your buddy has their phone switched on
- your buddy remembers to bring along their gotenna
- your buddy's gotenna is charged up
- there is not a big rock mountain thing between you and your buddy stopping the comms

Too much pfaff!

I'm still gonna look at walkietalkie headsets when I get over to the US in Sept. If they are lightweight, work with a helmet or hang off the harness without taking up space, and have a range of a few 100 meters... hmmmm 1km would be better.
