Using SPOT?s SPOT Connect, users can turn their smartphone into a satellite powered communications center and skip the search for cellphone reception in remote areas.
SPOT Connect, a small hockey puck-shaped device that will set potential buyers back $169, employs a $99 a year service that allows users to send status updates to Twitter and Facebook as well as send and receive emails and text messages without having to first worry about whether they?re in a place covered by a working cell tower. This device also has an emergency beacon mode that can be used in the case of life-threatening emergencies where ever you are, though it does not support voice calls of any kind. The Spot Connect device itself is available at BestBuy, Dick?s Sporting Goods, Bass Pro and Sports Authority.
The entire experience is powered by Bluetooth connectivity and a Spot Connect companion app that?s installed on an iPhone 4S, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad, or second, third, fourth and fifth generation iPod Touch. Together the system will link up with the Globalstar?s satellite communications system to keep its user in contact with the outside world. In addition to communications, SPOT Connect will also act as a sort of homing signal for a user?s physical whereabouts. Using the application?s built-in options, users could have the software and device package send out email, or text, with their exact geolocation and the time and date of which the location was logged.
