Prepare for Emergency and Disaster Communications Needs With SPOT Satellite Messenger

MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 5, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPOT LLC, the pioneer behind
the award-winning SPOT Satellite Messenger, offers a new, inexpensive product
that can be valuable to those living in Hurricane zones and other areas as they
prepare to face emergencies and natural disasters. The U.S. Department of
Homeland Security declared September "Disaster Preparedness Month" and with
Tropical Storm Hanna approaching the Southeast coast this weekend, and Tropical
Storms Ike and Josephine following, residents can use a reliable personal
locator to supplement their landline and cell phone service, which may be
compromised during a natural disaster.

SPOT is a lightweight, handheld personal safety communications device that
enables users to send messages and GPS coordinates directly and reliably to
friends and loved ones letting them know they are okay. SPOT can also send an
emergency message for help to an emergency call center used by SPOT LLC., from
virtually anywhere around the globe. The emergency call center then dispatches
the nearest first responders to the location of the SPOT unit. Hurricanes and
other disastrous weather conditions often wreak havoc on communications
infrastructure. In these circumstances, and when power outages occur, SPOT
remains fully operational because it uses 100% satellite technology, and is
battery operated.

"Our hearts go out to those affected by these hurricanes and our deepest
sympathies for those who have suffered great losses as a result," said Darren
Bassel, Director of Marketing for SPOT LLC. "Residents in these storm-prone
areas need to know that power outages and the failure of landline and cellular
service do not preclude potentially life-saving communications. SPOT is a highly
affordable and reliable form of communication that can help provide peace of
mind and emergency assistance while other forms of communication have been
rendered ineffective, and its GPS tracking features offer residents and
emergency responders alike the critical ability to locate family, friends and
co-workers during these life-threatening situations."

SPOT's suggested retail price is $169.99 with a $99.00 annual subscription
service. It is battery-operated (two AA lithium batteries), rugged, and
waterproof, and allows families to send satellite text and email messages for
help, or to inform loved ones that they are out of harm's way. In an emergency,
SPOT will notify GEOS, an international emergency response center used to
dispatch local rescue authorities to the SPOT user's GPS location.

SPOT is available at more than 5,000 points-of-sale including national and
regional outdoor retailers in the US. SPOT is also available at the Company's
website at www.findmespot.com.
