They report that the stubby antenna is for the GPS, which either means
awesome GPS performance, or compensation for a sub-par GPS chipset.  The
"PTT" switch is apparently linked to the VOIP application, which is
their added-value integration feature.  Could be very effective for I
suppose it could be used for other things.

Reminds me a bit of the old Garmin Rhino FRS radios...
