    $30 wouldn’t be competitive at all. A basic Garmin InReach subscription is $15 a month.

    With Apples massive user base, they should be able to just include it in Apple One or as a standalone for a couple bucks a month. They would instantly have more revenue just from that than Garmin does from InReach.

      Yeah, I was comparing against the $30 plan since it’s effectively an unlimited plan now and throw a few dollars at not having to buy a separate device.

      Though Iridium (InReach) is a bit more robust than Globalstar and you can get weather/etc…
