From Collegiate Presswire's RadioWire (https://www.cpwire.com/radio): Radio Increasingly, emergency preparedness has become a priority for Americans. No matter if it�s a hurricane, flood, wildfire, or terrorist attack, public safety experts say the best defense is to be prepared. One increasingly popular device is a mobile phone equipped with a quality walkie-talkie service. During an emergency, walkie-talkie service can still remain operational even if traditional cellular connections are unavailable. The Good Housekeeping Institute, the testing unit for Good Housekeeping Magazine, selected Nextel�s Nationwide Direct Connect walkie-talkie service as the most reliable for emergency communications during its most recent test of this type of service. John Kupsch, Technical Director at the Good Housekeeping Institute:
�The Good Housekeeping Institute recommended Nationwide Direct Connect over the other two services that we tested primarily because Nationwide Direct Connect made the best connections in more places.�
Nextel�s Nationwide Direct Connect connects in under a second from a few blocks down the street to thousands of miles away - even across international borders.
