Eventually sat fallback will become a standard feature on all phones and services.
I so rarely have a need to communicate in a location that lacks cell/WiFi coverage. Would have been nice when I spent an unplanned extra night on a Mt Jefferson glacier, but my friends phone had just enough service he could get a text out to his dad, who then let my parents know.
Basically all of the scenerios in which the feature would have come in handy are due to youthful risk-taking, which I've somewhat outgrown.
