Tony:

>>Are you telling me that I push the button and talk to 99,998 other users simultaneously?

Don't think so -- can anybody verify or is Arnie's "100" right? >>

Sorry, I wasn't following the origination of your question. Anyone who's fallen off Nextel's tunip truck knows each unit can only handle 100 Direct Connect ID's in memory.

But, if you learn how to get inside the truck you'll learn how you can press an actual ID# - and yes you can access #99,999 if you're network DAP is that big.

Some of Nextel's regional business networks are starting to approach those numbers. To interact on those networks you can program your unit to equate Alphanumeric IDs with actual DAP #'s.

As for Arnie's 100, this turnip truck answer was correct for what you were getting at. You can only DC 100 units simultaneously.

Happy Halloween!
