Get the cheap one now, when they add txt to the Rhino get that.
Best wilderness communication device invented in my lifetime, easier and more reliable than sat phones I've used.
You will like it. Make sure to go through the registration process and test it out at home, there are a few minor things you need to know how to do. You can also set up any three standard messages that you can send for free, I changed ours to match what we need.I set mine up to not automatically send waypoints to save on cost, I will send a standard message at the trailhead, a few "all clear" type messages during the day and then the third standard message is "camping here" to show where I end up.I also use the same charger I use for my phone just in case I need to charge the InReach, make sure you have the right cable.After my first day using it I had it down pat, just practice at home.

Definitely looking at getting the garmin. My wife and I have a 2.5 yr old and a 10 mo old. She wants to be able to get a hold of me if something happens with my boys. But also wants to be able to hear from me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
