Keep us updated on how it works and how you like it. It might be a viable alternative and much more affordable than a spot. I've got a Route 66 trip next year and I planned on getting a spot but, if a reasonable alternative comes along....

The pro version ($10 from google play) looks to have a bunch more setting and features such as custom update intervals, the ability to send texts based on location, attach photos to spotwalla when sending a status message and save up to 1500 points for when you are not in cell range (vs the free version limit of 5).
I have the free version and it mapped me pretty accurately from work to my house.
