You should be fine Gino, as they only have an English language version and are
not planning to roll our Spanish language internet in the foreseeable future...

Don’t rest on your laurels,
-The antenna is not that big, its about 18-20 inches.
-Latency is pretty low, below 70ms roundtrip
-Speeds would be about 100-500 Mbps to the end user
-Fade margin in not that bad with sats being close to the ground.
Price of hardware will evantually come down with mass volume from Starlink and
other LEO players. This could disrupt broadband internet as we know it.

They will have trees and snow to worry about.
I am sure it will not be super cheap either.
People don’t like antennas on their houses (sorry wisps but I do fiber now).
I am not worried, but I was not worried about Covid either...

Anyone worried this could put us out of business? I'm not really because I
don't care how hot your signal is, you'll be going over 100KM into space. No
way they'll get stable latency.

We had done some poking around to see about the same thing about 2 months ago.
We didn’t find much, but we’d be pretty interested in seeing of this is a
possibility. We are wondering if it would be more feasible/cheaper than
building out a new tower site for 2-3 subscribers surrounded by trees and will
be the most the tower will every have on it. Or if you can make any money on
it.

Anyone looking into starlink to see if you can partner with them? I heard
there may be a way of being a reseller or to lease bandwidth through their
system. I'd like to find out more information.
