tl;dw: among other issues, the network doesn't appear to store messages until they're confirmed to arrive, so it's very possible to miss incoming messages with no indication to either party

I have an Inreach that is nowhere close to real time messaging, but I just got used to its limitations. I'm kind of looking forward to when satellite direct-to-cell connections are reliable enough that I can drop the Inreach.
