Amazon.com Product Description
If you're in business and need to keep in close contact with your workers and colleagues, the Motorola XU2600 business two-way radio may be exactly what you're looking for. With hands-free functionality, a lightweight but rugged design, an extended battery life, six channels, and enhanced range capability, the Motorola XU2600 is designed with the professional who cares about efficiency and safety in mind. 
Take a closer look at the Motorola XU2600's functions. | 
A handy belt clip, plus a rugged design make the XU2600 perfect for the work day. | Many work sites, including construction areas, grocery stores, hospitals, and warehouses, require workers to cover vast amounts of area in the course of the day. These sites also suffer from high ambient noises generated from poor acoustics, machinery, vehicle traffic, and other loud sources. Keeping in constant touch with your staff requires communication tools that are specifically designed for these environments. When communications break down, your organization becomes less efficient, and issues such as productivity, safety, and profitability suddenly become serious concerns. Operating on FCC frequencies reserved exclusively for business use, the Motorola XU2600 is a powerful two-way radio that can help you keep your businesses operations on schedule, maximize productivity, enhance security, and increase overall customer satisfaction. (The Motorola XU2600 operates on UHF frequencies, making it ideal for communication inside steel and concrete structures.) Thanks to a newly designed chip and optimized acoustic cabinet that provides clearer audio at higher volumes, the Motorola XU2600 offers a significant improvement of sound quality over earlier Motorola two-way radio models. The radio has also been designed not only to be weatherproof, shockproof, and drop-proof, but also to meet MilSpec810 and IP54 standards. In other words, this is a radio that's built to take the harshest work conditions your job can dish out. A radio is only as good as its power source. With the included XTN NIMH rechargeable battery, you will get up to 13 hours of continuous work between recharges, and if you find yourself running a third shift on the same radio, you can throw in two AA batteries to keep the talk flowing for another 22 hours. The Motorola XU2600 also lets you spread out. With vastly improved selectivity, sensitivity, and voice compression in the receiver, you can talk up to 250,000 square feet, or up to 20 floors in a multi-level building. (Talk range may vary depending on terrain and conditions.) 
The XTN-series rechargeable battery offers a whopping 13 hours of life. | Of course, talk range is meaningless if you have continual channel chatter. With the XU2600, you have 56 business-exclusive UHF frequencies along with 121 private line codes, including 83 digital private line codes (DPL). So not only are you more likely to find a clear channel with no interference, you also get a high degree of compatibility with your existing fleets of radios. Speaking of compatibility, this radio can operate seamlessly with all Motorola Spirit professional two-way radios, including all radios in the Spirit M-Series, the Spirit GT, the Spirit HP, the Spirit Pacer, and the Spirit S-Series. So you can add XTN series radios as you go, or anytime you need to replace radios or purchase additional radios for your fleet. The XU2600 is designed for split-second cloning using the multi-unit charger. This allows you to quickly add radios to an existing fleet, or pick up and move the whole fleet to a new location and set it up in a hurry with all the appropriate channel and code settings. So if you're in a business that necessitates close communication with your staff, the Motorola XU2600 is designed to do the job safely, efficiently, and economically. What's in the Box
One XU2600 two-way radio, drop-in radio and battery charger, rechargeable NiMH battery, radio carry holster, AC adapter, and user's guide.

Works as intended, powerful. October 19, 2007
C. Thomas (MD, USA)
Our building rendered other 2-way radios and walkie-talkies useless from one end of the building to the other and from inside to outside. The Motorola XU2600 works great for us. We no longer have communication issues. Thanks Motorola!
One of the Best and Better than the Rest ! May 7, 2004

UPDATE: July 2007 Just be sure that the product is fresh, current, and is in fact the current (red label) version - some of the older (white label) versions are appearing for sale that have first version defects. They are no longer supported. The red label XTN radios on the other hand are great and have a near zero falure rate.
This is a very interesting radio. It replaces and way exceeds the now obsolete M-series Motorola Mu24cvs 4 channel radios. The M-series radios were so good that the XTN would have go a bit to beat them. Beat them it does.
A few points: These new radios are six (6) channels selecting from a library of 56 internal frequencies whereas the M radios were only four (4) channels selecting from a library of 8 internal frequencies. The XTN radios also can use the digital (DPL) privacy or private line codes that were not available to the M series. The XTN radios are compatible with the M series and they do work well together. Battery life is double for the XTN units: nearly 16 hours use before recharging. The old M series radios barely did 6 hours. The output power is a solid and full 2 real watts something sadly one never finds on the M series radios after only a little use. Those old guys only test out at about 1.4 watts average on the bench. The VOX really works on the newer XTN's and was pretty poor on the M series. Also VOX will work with the internal radio mic if desired which is a plus not found on the M series. The charging systems are way advanced over the M series systems and the batteries are amazing and last seemingly forever.
The bottom line is the XU2600 is one of the best UHF small business radios Motorola makes. They are nearly impossible to kill by dropping unlike the M series. The XTN radios produce a killer receive volume level making them useful in the nosiest environments; they also speak in a low whisper so very clearly. The transmit audio is truly great and the operating range is tops with the new compression and transmission algorithms. Side by side no M series radio of the same wattage talks nearly as far.
About the only things we find on the down side is that the antenna cannot be removed, so an external antenna impossible, and the volume control knob can be knocked off with the right accidental bump.
These radios are not toys and operate on assigned business frequencies/ A valid FCC license must be obtained prior to use. The license can be applied for online at the FCC website but it is way better to simply pay a frequency coordination company to do this complex work for you.
