This seems to be applicable for the US/Canada? for now…

Living in the sticks with slowwww internet speed? This may interest you..

SpaceX headed by Elon Musk have been sending lots of low orbit satellites into space and more scheduled, with an aim to provide a high speed internet service to everyone.
If your interested, a $99 fee is required for a pre-order with the total of $499 plus shipping fees due once your area has coverage. someone’s got to pay for the rocket fuel..
Check over the FAQ: https://www.starlink.com/faq

The Starlink kit consists of:
Dish antenna
wifi router
tripod stand
PoE adapter and ethernet cable to get you going,
although there is no mention of a user manual?!

more info available over on: https://www.starlink.com/

I have no affiliation with Starlink or SpaceX etc..just passing on info

Where did you get the prices – nothing on their site that I could see.
What is the ongoing cost?

Credibility of reputable website hits via an internet search.
Ongoing cost?
Slightly more expensive in comparison to fibre/Bband/Mobile for the novelty, remote accessibility, low latency and speed with minimal setup fuss.
Especially useful for people who live in the sticks that are isolated with pandemic restrictions, slow internet speed and forcing them to work from home.

I’d consider this an opportunity during a pandemic to offset tax via company/self employed working from home when purchasing, region/ country dependant of course. – suggestion to your manager/boss of the company 😉
