Customer in Alaska Saves Time and Money with an Iridium
"Six of us traveled to a small island near Cordova Alaska last week to construct a wilderness cabin lodge for an upcoming media camp. We were a two hour
boat ride from the nearest settlement and phone, and none of our cell phones worked in this remote part of Alaska. Upon our arrival the bomb was dropped
that the land owner had lost the plans for the cabin kit, leaving us with nothing but a pile of lumber and a ton of bewilderment to work through. After having
traveled three thousand miles and having taken a precious week vacation off, we weren't about to give up and walk away. However, we did have the phone
number of the cabin kit manufacturer, and most importantly, we had an Iridium satellite phone provided by Outfitter Satellite.
With a few easily made phone calls, we were provided with enough information to properly build the lodge, thus accomplishing the ambitious goal of
constructing the lodge in one week time. Without the satellite phone we would have had absolutely no chance to salvage the time and money spent on being
on site. And being so remote, we had the assurance that if any accident occurred on the site, a quick call would provide rapid emergency assistance. What a
technological miracle that phone is....providing a lightweight, easy to use, relatively inexpensive contact with the outside world from an area as wild and remote
as one can find in North America. I strongly urge all serious outdoors people to include a satellite phone in their "must have" equipment list, if not for the
convenience, then certainly for the safety aspects of having the availability of calling for help should an emergency arise in any remote area."

Customer in Kenya Calls from a Hot Air Balloon
"I 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 zebra. A great product! Thanks again."

Talking Head VideoPhone Feed using two Capsat Messengers
Throughout my seven weeks in Kuwait and Iraq, the videophone equipment
exceeded my performance expectations. It was a breeze to set up, and
traveling with the equipment was easy. U.S. Army vehicles had plenty of
room for the gear, allowing me to concentrate on shooting video, and
getting the story, not the equipment. It was a harsh environment to take sensitive
electronics into, but daily cleanings, and dustings kept us on the move.
When we did stop and set up to go live, or feed, I usually looked for a
patch of gravel to set up on...It seemed to help keep the dust out of
the gear. Tuning the phones in for peak signal was always a quick process, and connecting to the talking head
unit couldn't have been easier. Usually, I could unpack the gear, dial-up to the satellite, and begin broadcasting inside of 10 minutes. The ease of use and
reliability of the equipment cannot be stressed enough. I was able to have the equipment function well in conditions that halted military operations. I highly
recommend this
equipment to anyone looking for a portable, dependable system to deliver
high quality video from ANYWHERE in the world.
