So far I think the #SpotX 2 way looks best for my communicating while stopped, when I'm out on my sizable drives (almost never under 20 miles & sometimes over 150 miles) , but I'm still not sure, as some claim it's not a durable device & if it "needs a case" to endure repeated 3-6 foot drops without significant damage, then it definitely would be a waste of my money, and at $150-250, it would be a sizable money burn at that...

I've also considered rugged #Smartphones but, the AIs that all Smartphones come with, which need added work to keep turned off, have me wanting to continually destroy them over said manure, as I don't want an #AI on anything I use.

*Yes there are Smartphones that are degoogled but they're not durable enough & they generally still come with AIs.

I don't need this thing to speak to anyone, so voice isn't at all needed. I likewise don't really want this thing to take even moderate resolution pictures, so if it even has a camera, a 1 mexapixel one would be fine, as the most common thing I do is take pictures of price signage.

*I've also considered meshtastic but that's a radio, unpredictable in coverage & it often seems to require a smartphone to use.

So overall I don't know what to get, because overall none of these options seem sensible.

Pager might be it but??? that'll only let my spouse contact me with his emergencies & not him with any of mine... so I'm still at a loss. All the options are shitty.
