Has anyone gotten their hands on a Solara unit?
Ben's latest news about the Fast Find is welcome news and will, hopefully, convince some people to buy a real PLB but for less-than-emergency situations I think there is still a great need for commercial tracking devices. What caught my eye with the Solara (and the version 2 unit with a keypad) is SMS over satellite. I think this is going to be a killer feature if someone can get the price down.
Oh, and for those unfamiliar with the Solara, check out Doug Ritter's post here: http://www.equipped.org/etsfi_2008_recap.htm
