That price is actually dirt cheap.

Is the coverage nationwide?

Does this work on a moving vehicle? I'm guessing so since it already needs to handoff between satellites since they're not geosynchronous.

 

[CommanderFish]

Damn if I had an RV that shit would be legit. The key is the significantly lower latency than other satellite based systems.

I doubt they expect anyone to subscribe in urban areas with cable or fibre internet

If I LIVED in a remote area I would want at least 4G cell service. Camping out in the middle of no where I don't want cell service or internet.
