Product Description Design Calling Features One of the key features of any Nextel phone is support for Nextel's Direct Connect walkie-talkie technology. The i560 fully supports the service, which allows for one-touch conversations with anyone else on a Nextel phone, or with entire groups of Direct Connect users. It's like a having a CB radio with enough range to cover all of North America, Canada and Latin America. With the i560's powerful Direct Talk function you can also communicate in walkie-talkie mode when you're not connected to the network. The system works anywhere, anytime between compatible phones within a range of up to 6 miles (range will vary based on terrain and conditions). Direct Talk provides a reliable back-up communications tool in times of emergency, network outage, or when traveling to remote areas not under Nextel coverage. And last but not least, the i560 features a walkie-talkie private speaker button. This switches from the external speaker to the earpiece for private conversations or to minimize disruptions in quiet environments.

Amazon.com Product Description
This rugged phone is designed to win the hearts of construction and utilities users who demand durability and performance. In fact, the i560 adheres to Military Standard 810 F, meaning it performs in dusty environments, stands up to short drops and exposure to vibration from heavy machinery use. In addition to toughness, the i560 supports features like compatibility with Nextel's Direct Talk technology, voice dialing, GPS location technology and a speakerphone.
The i560's clamshell form factor sports a 130 x 130 TFT color display. Meanwhile, the outside cover of the handset features a supplementary, monochrome display that displays call information. The speakerphone unit is located on the rear of the phone, while the trademark Direct Connect and menu scrolling functions can be controlled from the side of the phone. The phone's control pad features a five-way button that can control most of the phone's functions, and there's also a 2.5-millimeter headset jack for connecting a hands-free headset.
The i560's built-in address book can store up to 600 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and email addresses. The phone comes with built-in polyphonic ringtones plus a vibrating alert, and more ringtones can be added via download from the Nextel Online service. Custom ringtones in MIDI and WAV format can also be used. The i560's voice activated dialing makes calling your friends, family and associates as easy as saying their names, while a built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. And if you have an emergency, the i560's GPS location technology pinpoints your exact location when you dial 911.
The i560 features MMS-based support for mobile-to-mobile or mobile-to-email text, image and audio messaging. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit -- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. Getting on the Internet anywhere is easy with the i560, as well. Nextel's optional Nextel Online package allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages and view your favorite web content on your phone. Nextel Online also features games, ringtones, realtime news and sports updates, virtual address books, and more-- all delivered to your Nextel phone. Also, because the i560 is GPS-enabled, you can use Nextel's location-based safety services like Mobile Locator, which allows you to locate a friend or family member's phone location at anytime, right from your computer. The i560's "Airplane Mode" allows you to turn off your network connection and use programs, games and voice recording while you're in flight. And finally, the i560 ships with a calendar, a voice memo application and a time and date clock.
The i560 is packed with a number of Java applications. TeleNav for audible driving directions is included, as is Trimble Outdoors (both require a subscription). Preloaded games include demo versions of Space Invaders and Tetris. More game downloads are available via the Nextel Online service.
The Motorola i560 weighs 4.8 ounces and measures 3.5 x 1.9 x 1 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 165 minutes of digital talk time, and up to 128 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the IDEN 800 frequency. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.
