YARMOUTH, Maine, Jan. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- DeLorme®, the innovation leader in navigation technology, continues to receive intense interest in the newly-released inReach™ two-way satellite communicator. The winner of multiple awards, including CES Innovations honors, inReach is on display at this week's 2012 CES Show in Las Vegas (DeLorme Booth 3219). 

The inReach is a personal communication device that, for the first time, offers consumer-affordable two-way satellite communication, message delivery confirmation, remote tracking, and SOS emergency capability anywhere in the world. It is available from better retail and online outlets.

In addition to 2012 CES Innovations honors, inReach awards include Popular Science 2011 Best of What's New and Gear of the Year selections by both Men's Journal and National Geographic Adventure. In addition, it was chosen for Gear of the Show and Best of Show awards by Outside Magazine and GearJunkie, respectively, at the industry-leading Outdoor Retailer Summer Market trade show.

Priced at $249, inReach works as a standalone communicator for pre-programmed messages and SOS alerts, plus remote tracking. When paired with either an Android phone or DeLorme's Earthmate PN-60w GPS, inReach enables two-way texting, letting users exchange vital information with family, friends, colleagues, or emergency responders. Messages can also be posted to Facebook and Twitter.

Messages are relayed by inReach via Iridium® satellites, which make up the world's furthest-reaching communications network.
