Hi FJ,
It's called the SPOT - check out
http://www.findmespot.com/en/.There's a good article on it on the back page of the current issue of Canadian Biker - you might have trouble finding a copy down there but try
http://www.canadianbiker.com/Device lets you send out an emergency help call or an end of the day "I'm OK" call and friends/relations can track you in 10 minute increments. Sounds kinda handy. I just came back from 10 days in Washington, Oregon and California and was on some pretty lonely back roads most of the time, out of cellphone range. This would have been good to have.
