This is an intriguing little item...
DeLorme AG-008373-201 inReach Two-Way Satellite Communicator

Great way to keep ion touch in more remote (cell free zones)... just stumbled onto this one this morning. I don't like the monthly service plan but am interested in the technology.

Seems like once the bugs are out & price goes down/options go up, it will kick ass!

The two way feature is nice but if you're not going to be using it all the time there's always epirb/plb. No monthy fee.

I know I'm a little late to this convo, but this looks sick...I especially like the "Pair with Android Phone" feature.
