in Fail: SPOT Messenger on Mobile Industry Review
SPOT seems to work okay in SOCAL USA
Just walked outside turned on the unit and pressed "Okay" button for 2 seconds. Came in the house and had a SPOT "okay" test message on my phone and one on the website.
Highway use seems to track good with occasional 20 minute dropouts. Used on my dirt bike in the desert last week, and worked okay, but there were a couple of 20 minute gaps in tracking (reports every 10 minutes).
Have to agree that it would be real nice to know if the messages were actually sent when I'm out in the desert.

Thanks Mule - I may have had a faulty unit... or it may be user error. We are talking to the SPOT guys to try and find out, but some for, of user feedback would be great.
