To be viewed and admired by all
The Geomate.jr was labeled at the easiest way to get in on the Geocaching fun. It came pre-loaded with 250,000 caches covering the entire U.S. or your part of the world. It was said that all you needed to do was switch it on and follow the arrow and distance to the geocache! So easy!
Well, I managed to win one of their devices through one of their Facebook photo contests in December 2011 for my children (Geo-Birdie & Geo-Froggy) to use while we are out caching. Then on 1/25/2012 it was announce that Geomate.jr was out of business with the following announcement:
"What can we say – this good thing has come to an end. We are no longer able to offer the Geomate.jr for sale or continue the Update Zone service. To our users, thank you for your tremendous support."
It is a shame because it doesn't seem to be such a bad device for newer cachers or younger kids to use since it is basic device.
The team over at Geomate.jr was nice enough to send me a couple of their Geocoins and several of their Travel Tags that they had left in stock to put out as a tribute to their company and device that they had designed. I attached this Travel Tag purposely to the "Peace Sign Series Traveler" (TB2JBWT) in order for it to attend many events throughout the world to teach people about this unfortunate failure of a company to thrive.
