The unit I chose has a higher likelihood to get your emergency message out with a single button push and the COSPAS-SARSAT system with a ton of satellites, worldwide too. I am not an expert on the current messaging systems, but everything I see is cute, but really not looking at staying in touch or being tracked. The cell phone fills that function in many places already. Also not interested in a monthly fee. The PLB registration is free.
