<p>I ordered the pre-order and plunked down the $99 to be on the
wait list. If it works well enough for the first month when I get
it, I will cancel Centurylink and just use Starlink with Cox as
the backup.</p>
<p>Looking forward to it.<br>

<div>They claim 50Mbps to 150Mbps data rates and latency from
20ms to 40ms. Initial testing has shown a bit lower than
that, upload speeds have varied from 10Mbps to 30Mbps and
download speeds from 15Mbps to 120Mbps, which for
satellite-type connectivity is pretty amazing, particularly
without the usual 500ms latency for those services.<br>

<div>If I were stuck in a rural area with some 3Mbps broadband
download (even cities like San Francisco), I'd be all over
this for $100 bucks a month and $500 for the dish array.<br>
