- The firm behind CAT phones has announced a two-way satellite messaging service.
- It will debut on an upcoming Motorola Defy rugged smartphone.
Bullitt Group is the company behind CAT-branded rugged smartphones, but the firm’s biggest announcement at CES 2023 isn’t a CAT device. Instead, it’s announced a new two-way satellite messaging service that will arrive on a Motorola device.
Bullitt Satellite Connect launches in Q1 2023 and will allow users to send and receive text messages, send SOS requests, and share their location via satellite. The service will be implemented in collaboration with connectivity firm Skylo and the Inmarsat constellation of satellites.
