I thought Starlink was supposed to be reasonably priced. Like, wasn't it $99/mo. at one point?

That is the ‘wait in line and you may get it eventually’ version.

The ‘I want it now’ version is priced at 2500 USD up front and 500 USD/month thereafter.

I don’t consider things that are on a waitlist for ? long as ‘available for purchase’. See Roadster, Cybertruck, Tesla Semi, “Self Driving”, etc.

You don't need to purchase the upgraded version to bypass cell capacity limits. The RV and roaming plans can work as well. Sharing this so others aren't misled by inaccurate information.

Have a link for that info where you can be location independent on Starlink for 99 USD/month?

I’m all ears.

Starlink for RVs: $135/month. A premium over the standard product, but far less than $500/month for business service.

Lol. Like many people, I too have $99/month service. I typed my name into the evil waitlist. I subsequently received a satellite dish that gave me space internet. For less than my cable subscription. For internet from space.

Haters gonna.
