    10-4! That's why I'm experimenting with it. There's zero chance of my Comcast cable or Loveland fiber optic ever becoming mobile. And Verizon is just criminal, so ..

    That's VERY cool! We'd love to do that. That's a great idea to camp out and watch a few. I'll put that on my list for sure.

    I received my invite via email yesterday. It's a little too pricey for me seeing as it's not a remote setup. I may sign up when I can "take it with me".

    I paid the startup fee as well. My email said it would be mid to late 21 before it is available. Even if it's not portable per se it will still be a game changer for us at our farm. I would also think it would be a great add on at campgrounds in the event our systems are not portable.

    That's great news! I just wish Elon would have elaborated a little and gave a tentative target date.

    I too paid my 99.00 for the beta program fee last week. I live in Florida so I am curious to see when we finally get service. I am more interested in using it with my 310GK!

    We are receiving our equipment in 3 weeks from Monday. Friends have been beta testing on left coast, right through the fires last year. They are full-time with a mountain home base where they weathered COVID-19 lockdowns. We live so rural our only options are Dish and an interlaced DSL at the sticks and bricks! Looking forward to this!

    My intention is to experiment with it and compare it to the other options I have available:
    • Comcast cable
    • Verizon 4gLTE
    • City of Loveland Fiber Optic

    My goal is to do real world testing and measuring of this capability with the hopes that someday it'll become portable and maybe a little easier on power.

    If you're interested, please subscribe to this thread and I'll do my best to blog my findings.
    If you want to tell me how stupid this is and how it'll never work, feel free to post that, too.

    For some initial Q&A - go here - https://www.starlink.com/faq
    Verizon has gotten extremely poor lately in the northwest. Dropped calls, echoing voices, missing or days late texts and voicemails. Everyone I know that use Verizon comment about the horrible service they provide.

    I would buy tomorrow if there was monthly plan. I only need from June to October (camping season). I really dont want to pay $50 a month through winter.
