Neat, guys! Good to know.
Since the LiquiVision Lynx has buddy locator functionality, if both buddies dive with a Lynx, I wonder how long until someone markets dive computers that can send out a distress signal to a buddy?
Of course, considering it's said a number of dead divers are found on the bottom without having ditched their weights, the effects of panic, the fact they used to tell people in emergencies to call 'Nine Eleven' but changed to 9-1-1 because panicked people couldn't find the eleven key on their phone, such a move could also create problems since the lead buddy could become overly complacent, thinking if there's a problem, my buddy can just signal me.
