    And another gripe.

    I put in my deposit in mid-February for Starlink thinking I would get it before heading back to Arizona but nope. Come on Elon Musk lets get a move on. 🤬

    Same here! They said mid-summer for connection. It is now mid-fall and not a word from them since they took my money.

    Right now he is pushing to get it on to commercial aircraft. Also I've reports that they are making a smaller dish and cutting the price in half. Some of the places I go in the winter I get no cell signal and figure I can use the WiFi for the phone.
