Hi

I am considering getting one of these devices.

I have used Spot 1 messenger for many years but it's lack of two way communication is an issue for me.

At this point I am not interested in a Satphone.

One of the uses for this device is to alert some one if you have mechanical difficulties in a remote area.

Has any one used one of these devices in this situation. My concern is that sending messages to some one you don't know is problematic in that they would probably not respond.

So what do people do. Do they just message a known person with details and get them to track down help or just hope for a response. If so it probably is not much better than What is offered by Spot.
