Top 5 Reasons to get a Satellite Phone


Reason #1 The satellite phone is ideal for people who are always on the move ie pimp jet setters who donŐt have time for bad reception. ItŐs perfect to use on planes, cruise ships, and the such. One happy customer quotes, ŇI am happy to report that the...phone worked well indeed on safari in Africa. My relatives soon found that the [phone] was far less expensive and far more reliable than the phones in the best hotels in Kenya. The Masai locals were quite stunned when I pulled out the phone and called home after exiting from a hot air balloon ride over thundering herds of zebraÉÓ So that pretty much speaks for itself.

Reason #2 The Miltary uses them. Just like the miltary was using the internet in the 1970's they are again ahead of the curve with their use of the satellite phone. The satellite phone is one of the main sources of communication devices used by the government and military groups. The U.S. Department of Defense uses the phone for their services. The satillite phone is also used by the maritime, aviation, emergency, mining, foresting, oil and gas industries- but thatŐs not quite as flashy.

Reason #3 There is no specific coverage area with a satellite phone. The satellite phone coverage is worldwide. This includes oceans, airways and polar regions. According to Globalstar, a leading satellite phone and service provider, approximately fifty percent of the world has little or no phone service. The satellite phone will change this, since it eliminates the need for costly landline and wireless network infrastructures. And now with prices that start at $395 and range upwards into $1,699, itŐs pretty much a steal.

Reason #4 The satellite phone is hard to trace- which explains why the government holds such an interest in it. It would also work well for prank calling and/or uses of criminal intent.

Reason #5 The eighties are coming back with a vengeance and nothing says Ň80ŐsÓ like a big ass Nino Brown sized cell phone. Not only are they economically trendy, but theyŐre ŇvintageÓ. And besides, with the success of the satellite phone network so far, this is definitely the future of the cell phone. You might as well get in now and be ahead of the game.

Still wondering how it all works? This is the low down on the satellite phone constellation operation. Iridium, the other leading satellite phone provider has a constellation consisting of 66 LEOs (low-earth orbiting) cross-linked satellites and multiple in-orbit spares. These satellites then complete orbits around the Earth providing constant 24-hour service with no gaps to anyone using a satellite phone. ItŐs not rocket science, people. ItŐs just hot, new technology.
