Global Marine Networks

Thanks to John Dark from Global Marine Networks for providing me with an Iridium Motorola 9555 satellite phone plus XGate satellite e-mail service for my South American circumnavigation!

Now I’ll be able to send emails and update my blog via satellite phone with longer e-mails instead of only posting short text messages when I’m out of reach of cellphone / wifi!

I’m using XGate with an Iridium 9555 and my Toshiba Portege computer. Iridium coverage is very reliable, but like all satellite phones not very fast compared with what we use at home. Fortunately, XGate Email is 15 times faster than webmail or standard email over satellite phones. It will also save me up to 85% on satellite airtime expenses. Best of all, it easily set up both my computer and satellite phone in minutes.

XGate satellite phone email is the easy way to access email while on the water or in remote locations. XGate is simply the fastest, easiest and most reliable satellite phone email available, saving you time, money and frustration.
