I have an InReach and it's great for what I need. But I don't think it's going to download
weather maps. The only weather option I'm aware of is Ocen's SpotCast, which is basically a text message containing a coded
forecast.
The InReach can really just send and receive text messages. You can send and receive them to/from an e-mail account, but you can't do things like embed pictures or format the text. You can set up automatic
tracking messages that you and others can view on the web. Nice touch, but the true functionality is two-way text messaging anywhere on earth.
The
forecast option for $8/month sounds interesting, anyone use that?
