3mbps on a ship at 5:1 tdma oversubscribed is about 16k a month on c band 
-----------------------------------------------------------

There're 43200 minutes in a month.  Just to be fast, the article said 1.5Mbps
link, so I used 1/2 of your $16K.  Divide the $8K by 43200 and I get 18 cents 
per minute.

Also, I completely missed that there was a page 2.  It looks like they use 
Iridium.  Here is some pricing.  Just the first thing I found:
