LG Electronics has unveiled the first mobile phone to use the Bluetooth 1.2 specification and offer walkie-talkie like communications. The LG-KF1000 has a 1.3 megapixel camera, MP3 playback functionality, stereo speakers and dual LCD displays; images and songs can be stored on the expandable miniSD slot.
Thanks to Bluetooth 1.2, the LG KF1000 is capable of short distance communications with other similar handsets, making walkie-talkie type communication possible within a 100 meter range.
The handset will work on CDMA networks and has the capability to connect with PSTN landlines for indoor use.

Walky talkie like communication, how? Two bt1.2 devices directly, without the call going thru the network?

He probable means Push to Talk and it still goes through the network its just that you will always appear online to your fellow friends and as soon as you shout down the line, they automatically hear what you got to say.

No, it isn't push to talk, re-read this section:
"Thanks to Bluetooth 1.2, the LG KF1000 is capable of short distance communications with other similar handsets, making walkie-talkie type communication possible within a 100 meter range."
Push to talk surely has a bigger range than 100m since it's using the network?
