Works as advertised
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Works as advertised. I couldn't receive messages for a few days when I was testing it from home but then started receiving them. Battery lasts about 3 days when sending about 4 messages per day. I switched from one of their entry level devices and the switch was easy, customer service was good. Ultimately though, I would bet satellite messaging will come to smartphones and these devices will be obsolete. It feels like there has been little product development since 2010 on this thing.
Do you have a question about this product?

I have a difficult time understanding what the device advertises and what the data plan says. Basically, does this device allow for free texts (not canned texts), but free texts to communicate back and forth with another party? The data plan doesnt seem to explain that well. Thank you

I work on the ocean and spend a few days at a time out there. Will this phone be alright out there and will i be able to call or receive calls?
