Hi Daniel!

Sorry ... I could not find any price information for their satellite service
there.

I wanted to compare to other Sat Internet services.

Eg. sat internet from our incumbent telco:
45 EUR for 22 MBit/s down 6 MBit/s up with 10 GB traffic per month
60 EUR for 30/6 with 20 GB/month
90 EUR for 30/6 with 60 GB&month
150 EUR for 50/6 with 150 GB/month

How much more reasonably priced is the Space X offering?

When going low earth orbit you gain better latency but pay with incredibly
higher cost.
(you need a hackload more of satellites)

CU, Ricsi

... I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell.
