You lie, I've been looking at the picture for a while and all I see is the void staring back at me.

That is clearly the IT tech fixing what the two people behind have broken.
That is defiantly a meshtastic node.
It may help responders who have been trained on the device & app's, have the app's already downloaded and configured and have a reliable way to recharge both the devices and cell phones.
If they are trying to get more people to install fixed stations and learn how to use them then more power to them.
Though I think that they may have a easier time getting people to start installing PRS radios in vehicles, homes, heavy machinery and getting handheld units.
It is a lot simpler and cheaper to get a PRS radio installed & provided with reliable power and 90% of people can use them without training.
Why doesn't the maritime industry take cues from the aviation industry as they have worked out a rather simple solution in response to several losses of planes due to similar issues.
Have auto pilot that disengages with sustained mass input of the controls with an accompanying audio alert of "autopilot disengaged, manual control, autopilot disengaged, manual control".
You waited too long to turn two of them, they have burnt.
The one in the middle is lovely golden brown.
I am just jaded about all these new services touting how great it is and have been burnt in the past.
Was just trying to warn you to look at the T&C for the service and thoroughly test it before dropping your other service.
You might want to look at the reliability guarantee if any that One NZ will give the satellite text message feature.
Most likely in their T&C there will be verbiage that says not to use it as a replacement for dedicated services.
Have a look at your local pet shop for a heat pad.
The hardware isn't so much of a problem as there are companies who can make or source compatible tablets like the PineTab2 and the PineNote.
It's making the software compatible with a lower power mobile device and learning what needs to fixed.
It would have been much easier to deal with getting a tablet up and running before dealing with getting a mobile device functional.
Making the small steps from laptop to tablet then to phone would have saved them a lot of grief and software mistakes.
They really shot themselves in the foot by going straight to phones.
The better way would have been to work on tablets first and working out all the bugs on larger devices with a limited feature set before moving into phones with the attendant issues of regional cell bands and restrictions.
From what I understand about the windows 10 install is you have to remove the internet connection to get the option.
