Thanks for letting me know about spot Terry. I have used it in many of my travels and just recently used it last week when I went to Oaxaca. I was in a very remote area and kept it on all day. My wife was able to track me the entire day. I also sent you the link.

I suggest anyone that travels to have one. I will have it o next week when I'm in Nicaragua.

Of course I don't let the wife track me when I tell her I'm working in Mexico City but actually on the beach in Acapulco!
