I think this is where the technology is headed.

That's pretty cool. It's sort of a combo of SPOT hardware device with a smart phone app that has additional tools.

The price is still a bit inaccessible, but it's a good start towards integration of the technologies. Satellite connections may come down someday now that we have a few private rocket launchers in business.

It doesn't take a lot of bandwidth to send the predefined messages they offer, but I don't know much about what's available, or the demands on it.
