Hello,
Do you know if you have SPOTX devices in stock in your Eugene, Oregon store?
Once purchased, how long does it take to activate and become usable?
Thanks!
Patrick

You don't want a SPOT. You want an inReach. They are 1000% better, more reliable and user friendly. To find stock, go to https://www.rei.com/product/140110/garmin-inreach-mini-2-way-satellite-communicator click the button "Find a store near you" right above the "Add to cart". This will tell you the closest place with stock. Activation is very quick and easy via their online portal.

@Patrick assuming you are referring to the SPOT X 2-Way, then yes, as of this morning it is available in our Eugene OR store. In terms of activating and using, this process should only take ~10-15 minutes - long enough to set up and pay for a subscription!
Last thing, even though you posted this question on the "Ask an REI Employee" board, you may also get suggestions from other members of the community. This is a just a friendly reminder that only posts from a user with the “REI Employee” title should be regarded as employee-generated content. That said, the "REI Community Moderator/Manager" are also employees!
