Yes it's real! In rural cities in the USA many people only have 1-2mbps speeds still!

My family in rural areas are waiting and hoping for 5G internet to save them, but I live in a rather hilly region and many are worried their homes won't get good 5G service!

I think this is why starlink will sell well.

Rural users are sick of slow speeds, and in low density areas there should be enough bandwidth for starlink to work well.

Dont know how starlink would handle a city-full of users; Think that is something we are looking forward to finding out.
