“If you cross the Sahara on camelback without tweeting it, did it really happen?” The DeLorme inReach SE sidesteps that quandary completely by letting a user send and receive texts, emails, tweets, and Facebook posts “even in the most remote locales.” Since the device connects to the Web via low-orbiting satellites, you’ll never need a cellphone tower nearby. Sure, it “looks like a chunky walkie-talkie” and won’t work indoors. But it does its job, and can even create maps based on your coordinates to let friends monitor your progress during long treks.
