Direct-to-cell still feels like something that I don't want to get my life on if I'm backpacking solo, but I'm definitely looking forward to when I can dump the Inreach hardware and subscription.
I can definitely see why someone would have mixed feelings about the tech, being truly disconnected from the world has it's benefits.
But, I'd rather be able to get accurate weather forecasts.
