From Low-Earth Orbit Satellites?

IRIDIUM-4 MISSION
- On Friday, December 22nd at 5:27 p.m. PST, SpaceX's Falcon 9 successfully lifted off from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, carrying the Iridium-4 mission to orbit. This was the fourth set of 10 satellites in a series of 75 total satellites that SpaceX will launch for Iridium’s next generation global satellite constellation, Iridium® NEXT.

Using Iridium would be somewhat like using a cell-phone while driving. When you pass out of the range of the cell tower it hands you off to another. Same thing..when the satellite passes out of range...it hands you off to another.
take THAT flat-earthers
Best line in awhile, made me laugh.
As for the future of "SkyNet" the future looks bleak for the legacy carriers if they can bring down the cost. But of course pricing will start out 3 percent cheaper, then after a year 33 percent more expensive than current legacy systems.

I don't THINK so.
the price of putting sattelites in orbit is getting cheaper every day.
if they try that...someone ELSE will do the same thing.
competition is a FINE thing.

Dial-up and 5mb web page and 2 email addresses price less than $30.00, (about 10 years ago), smart phone web access over $150.00, no free email, and no free web space. Past speed history pricing does not bode well.

compare apples to apples.
not apples to a whole state full of orchards.
if you want what you had ten years ago what would it cost your right now?

Actually I don't want what I had 10 years ago, just pointing out as the speed got faster, the prices got higher, the services got fewer. That's all I was trying to show.I am not sure there is even dial-up available anymore, it certainly is not where I live, we do not even have phone lines running into our house, we have to have cell phones.

Yes. The 5G network will be provided by low orbit sat. You'll notice those in the know are selling cell towers as those will no longer be needed.
One can not have the "Global Brain" as it was called at the last mobile communications tech conference in Barcelona last year without 5G and this constellation is how they will ensure all areas of the planet have coverage. 5G will be fast enough and wide enough to carry the data necessary to link everything to everything else. The Internet of Things will take a giant leap forward with this communications infrastructure. Plan is to be fully functional by 2020.

Imma make me a hat that blocks them. Lessee, need to use some kind of metal, that I can easily shape to conform to the shape of my head.
Any ideas?

I might be of the subject. I think some might have to know this before the end of the year. Please help to spread awareness. Starting 2018 all crypto transactions are taxable events
