**) Data trans­mission: Sending/receiving e‑mails without attach­ments and sending GPS position data works. Also, the Iridium GO! is limited to the use of Iridium approved appli­ca­tions (essen­tially weather data and email services): This allows you to download weather data and receive/send mail. You do not have an open Internet. Surfing or even YouTube definitely does not work. Under optimal condi­tions, 1 MB of data will take you an hour to transfer = You don’t want to surf.

Rental costs (example calculation)

Fictional rental of an Iridium GO! satellite phone for your Sailing trip Portugal, Canary Islands and Azores:

You fly to Lisbon (Portugal) on 03.05. and return on 25.05. You want to have the phone with you as early as 02.05. so that you can test it at your leisure - which we highly recommend. The satellite phone arrives back at our place on 27.05.

The rental period is therefore 02.05. to 27.05. = 26 days.
Rental price 26 days á 7.00 Euro/day = 182.00 Euro (plus shipping)

Personal use: You call home 5 times for 1.5 minutes each time. Whether landline or mobile network makes no difference to the price. Furthermore, you send a short text message as an e-mail on each of 3 days. According to the connection prices, this results in:

7.5 minutes = 13.50 Euro
3 e-mails = 2.10 Euro

Price to reassure your loved ones at home: 197.60 Euro
