This is now possible with the Somewear Global Hotspot
There is a new product on Kickstarter that allows people to send texts from wherever they are on earth! The Somewear Global Hotspot offers a variety of features for adventurous travelers who more often than not are at a location with bad or no cellular reception.
The Global Hotspot is very light yet extremely robust. It connects to mobile devices via Bluetooth and tracks the whereabouts through its GPS. The beauty of this device lies in its ability to connect up with the Iridium satellite in order to send and receive messages and emails through the Somewear app, essentially turning your smartphone into a super smart phone!
