Elon Musk wants Starlink to expand to a network of one million satellites – enough to cover urban areas – and launch its own mobile phone service and handset.…

lol another billionaire promising to save us all while we can't even get decent phone reception in my local park. yeah nah.
facts. I'd take anything that forces Spark to actually compete instead of just jacking prices every year.
If Starlink can give me proper internet out in the wop wops, I'm all for it. Sick of paying Spark for dial-up speed.
good on them honestly, our telecoms have been taking the mickey for years. competition is what we need eh.
exactly, they'll just buy it up and add $50/month to our bills. Nothing ever changes.
Will it kill our telcos? Lol not likely. Watch them just buy the tech and charge us even more. Same shit different wrapper.

ffs not another Elon fanboy article. The guy talks more than he delivers. Let me know when I can actually use it without selling a kidney.
cap. Elon's promised Mars by next Tuesday and we're still here arguing about fiber. Get real.
Worked in telco for 15 years. These satellite services are fine for rural holes but they'll never match the capacity of fiber in cities. Just another overhyped fluff piece.
thank you someone who actually knows what they're talking about. Mate these take rates are always a joke.
