From BGR:
When you go to a concert or a sports event and you can’t text or talk to your friends because the network is overloaded, it’s annoying. When you go hiking, rafting, mountain climbing or anything else in the wilderness and you can’t text or talk to your friends because there’s no coverage, it’s dangerous.
This brilliant little gadget connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth, and then BEARTOOTH devices connect to each other over dedicated radio waves. While connected, you can talk and text with any other BEARTOOTH users without the need for cell service or Wi-Fi. You can also share your location, and other users can navigate to you with the BEARTOOTH app. By now you’re wondering what the range is, and you should prepare to be impressed. Depending on the terrain and your surroundings, BEARTOOTH has a range of between 1 and 3 miles.
