The latest device to let you stay in touch from anywhere.    I’m Fred Fishkin with technology BootCamp, a Report on gadgets and gear.     Cell phones are great for helping you stay connected from almost anywhere.   The key word is almost.  If you are the adventurous type you know there are plenty of places where those phones aren’t of much use.  The inReach satellite communication devices from DeLorme  have proven to be a lifeline to many, and now comes a model, the inReach SE,  with screen that makes it easier than ever to use.    Marketing VP Kim Stiver….

“It features a color screen and a virtual keyboard.  So now you can do everything on the device that you used to have to pair for.   So you can do free form texting, you can turn on and off your tracking, you can post to social media, trigger the SOS.  Everything you could do with the original you can now do with the color screen and keyboard right onboard on the device.”

The inReach SE is priced at about 300 dollars, 50 dollars more than the original.  There’s more info at DeLorme.com.   You can find us at BootCamp.com.   I’m Fred Fishkin.
