Remember that awesome FLIR sensor that Jeff got for his iPhone? Much like the GAU-8 Avenger is so awesome that the military decided to build the Warthog around it, CAT (Caterpillar) decided to make a phone around that FLIR cam. Nod politely to the badass CAT S60 phone.

I have my Galaxy S5 heavily protected but even so, I find it to be too cumbersome when working on-site so I keep it somewhere safe and carry a Neptune in my shirt pocket. I also encourage my customers to contact me via the app "Zello" which is a 2-way PTT radio.

I never have to leave a bulky phone laying on a machine or in my toolbox and, when set to vibrate, I never miss a call.
Rather than reaching in to my shirt pocket, I have configured one of those cheapie remote camera triggers (Bluetooth) as a PTT button.
