It occurred to me that for a second, backup cellphone it might be good to use a major carrier other than my primary provider (Verizon). So next to Verizon, who of the other major providers is considered to have the widest coverage and reliability?

I found one of these at REI and thought I would give it a try. I haven't used it yet, but it seems very practical for cleaning that nasty water before you try to purify it. It folds up fairly small and is intended to pack under the fuel canister of most small camp stoves. The material is strong and seems like it would withstand quite a few uses.

I'm not sure if this is relavant. I just was playing around with my garmin a bit ago and found a site about getting free topographic maps in canada. I've used it in the trails a bit, hiking and that sort and it works fairly well. I thought I'd post the site in case anybody at all is interested or wants to save a few $$

Follow-up Hands-on Report - Second Generation SPOT
Turns out the first sample we received wasn't a production SPOT 2 after all and wasn't waterproof in the least. We have now received another SPOT 2 and have dunked this one with better results--sort of. Read what we discovered after dunking SPOT 2 to its rated depth, as well as a few other interesting discoveries.
