3.0 out of 5 stars okay, July 1, 2003

This review is from: XACT Communications X2X WristLinx 1.5-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio Wristwatch (Electronics)

I like the idea of having the 2 way radio on my wrist but I found it too thick and bulky. So its not exactly comfortable wearing it around. Also this (like any other 2 way radios) is not good for theme parks since everyone has a radio (cellphone still works best). This works for hiking or maybe inside a mall. They have a new version X3X out but I'm not sure if that is thinner. I also have a Motorola Talkabout Radio. It can call my motorola but my motorola can't call it back. I havent had any luck reaching Xact. If you call their tech support phone you will just get routed with all voicemessages, their email also bounces back. I got 4 and will return 2 of them and just wait for the next version.

If people would actually look at what they're buying, they would realize that a license is ONLY required for the GMRS frequencies (15-22) the first 14 frequencies are FRS which require no license. This is true of ALL consumer GMRS/FRS radios.

We got an X2X for our son last summer and tuned one of our family radios to the same frequency. Our son could take off around the neighborhood on his bike or his electric scooter and we could check in with him any time, call him home for supper, etc. He could buzz home to ask if it was OK to stop at a friends' house or let us know where he was. It gave him a lot of freedom and gave us great peace of mind at the same time.

We didn't have any problem with breakage, it was holding up just fine until the boy lost it. I think we'll buy him another one next summer!
