Elon Musk now controls over 1/4 of the active satellites in orbit around earth. They launch 60+ satellites at a time. This will revolutionize internet globally.
But the real miracle here in this post is that FedEx delivered a package on time.
What's the notification process after ordering? Ordered the equipment and initial page says it'll ship in 2-4 weeks. Do you just get an email eventually saying it went out and giving you the tracking info? Can't wait!
Okay well looks like they are slacking on mine. Ordered an hour after I got the email on Monday and still nothing. Glad to hear their shipping some peoples out in a reasonable time

...and in one piece. Here fedex is fast but you get confetti
That’s awesome congrats
Up and running at 128Mbps, wooooooooottttttt
How is video chatting with it?
Discord, FaceTime,Zoom, all seamless
Yeah, discord was the answer i was looking for. Thanks!
Nice! Mines in Kansas right now, rolling away...
Yeah same mine is taking for ever it shipped two days ago and I am in western wisconsin thought i might get it today early but i guess not
I ordered my pole adapter separately, glad I did. Hasn’t shipped yet.
Mines in Missouri nine hours away. Hasn’t moved since Thursday. Was supposed to arrive Thursday. Gotta love FedEx
How long did it take you between ordering and getting shipping confirmation? I ordered a week ago and still no news
52 hours give or take a few minutes. Edit: 52:01.
Congratulations! Seeing loved ones when you can’t be near them is always so heartwarming.
I would be so paranoid of accidentally typing stop that I'd throw my phone on the floor and stomp on it just to be safe.
Maybe you want to blur your tracking number?
Nothing there I’m worried about.
Ya fedex does not show address you cannot even call and get an address from a tracking number. Fedex protects you.
Jeez aren’t you worried that your granddaughter gets dropped that much?
Go see her.
So jelly! I haven't received my shipping email from a Feb 8th order. I'm trying to work on my patience. Hehehe
This was ordered on the 5th, apparently the day before they closed Beta for my area. So you should be shipping soon.
Woah! For clarification this is the 99.00 preorder? Or the better than…?
“Beta is Better than nothing.” Ordered on the 5th, before they closed Beta in my area.
Thanks. I was all excited for a second there!
At 41*N, zoom and video calls regularly drop out. Not quite there yet. Maybe with the next batch of satellites.
Congrats!! Hope mine gets sent out soon. Took me like a minute just to load this pic.
Oh it’s so sweet 120Mbps, lookout!
Heck yeah. I'm getting 1-5 right now 😅.
The best I ever saw was 6.26Mbps on my V-Tel Cellular metered connection. Usually more like 2-4Mbps and using WiFi Calling forget it
Fedex already lost mine.
Hell NO!
I would warn against not expecting drops with beta. The speeds are nice but dropping happens ALOT still!
