New ~ SPOT Satellite Phones
Seem reasonably priced. Anyone have one? Couldn't get the link to work.

Correct. Geostationary orbit doesn't necessarily mean that the sat is on the equator.
And yet, I don't see any prepaid cards with low minutes, say, 30 or 60, valid for one year - except for Isatphone. How much the help is worth in emergency? This is not a "help", this is insurance. You pay it every year and maybe will only use once in a lifetime, except for when you intentionally use your minutes because they will soon expire anyway. How much you should pay for insurance? As little as possible, if this doesn't compromise the result.
