DeLorme inREACH - Two Way Sat Texting???

Recommended Posts

I saw that recently and if it lives up to what the advertisement says, it should be pretty spectacular. I would like to get one, but I think I will wait a bit to see what the reviews say.

 

I would be willing to bet that SPOT will come out with a competative product in the near future. The cost is insignificant considering what the Delorme is able to do. SPOT will lose a lot of customers if they don't stay competative with a similar item.

I have not, but did read that one (SPOT, GARMIN or DELORME) will connect via blue tooth to a smart phone that will allow texting. Appears this technology is a season or two away.

I believe SPOT already offers that technology and uses a smart phone to do the typing and the SPOT to send it as Redman said. The whole key is whether or not they actually work! I think I'll wait a couple more years till something comes out that works and gets good reviews.
