Are you starting to believe getting a Unicorn is more probable than getting a shipment box from SpaceX Starlink?

By now there must be 150K boxes shipped but you haven't received one yet.

This video shows what's inside the box to give you a glance at the 21st Century.

Starlink is still in Beta (we think) and is taking reservations for a $99 reservation fee with a balance of the $499 plus tax and shipping if they pick you. IF they pick you!

See my video "Why Haven't I received my Starlink yet"    • Where Is My SpaceX Starlink Internet Order...  

They added 10K in August, are now shipping 5K per week and rumor has it that Starlink will cut the cost of the Dish system by half soon, but I'm pretty sure the price will remain the same for customers since they are supposed to be losing money on each system right now. We will see!

See my video on Six Months with Starlink in the Forest so see what happened as the seasons changed and shsifted the variables.

If things remain the same as they are right now, I'll be happy with the minimal speeds we get today. It's enough to support streaming services, my numerous Google Home mini devices, and email.
