I know I will probably get a lot of grief for asking this, HOWEVER, I do own the sds100, I would really like to have a Motorola APX preferably the APX8000 (way out of budget) I'll settle for the APX900 (more within budget) I plan on doing this all legitimately. My question is. Is it possible to use the APX900 as a scanner? I plan on carrying it around everywhere.I appreciate how it is waterproof, the ruggedness,the look, the feel ,just everything about the Motorola is awesome to be frank. Please be nice. This is simply an inquiry.
