I’m in a discounted area and “only” pay $90 per month, so that probably has something to do with the speeds.
I’m also fairly close to the downlink site - not sure if that has any effect.
There are no other non-satellite options available.
For $X00 per month, they get business hours on-call access and up to 10 hours of actual support work. I think the retainer/hours thing is a lot more palatable.
I offered 24x7, but having done it many times over the years, my price for it was about 3x the business hours support price, and the company was b2b, so it was mostly business hours anyways, so it wasn't a big deal.
The cost (to me) of always having to carry a laptop around, always be in cell range, always be mostly sober, always have my phone ringer turned on, etc. requires significant compensation, and for me, $1000 per month is nowhere near enough to deal with that.
You've been doing it for a few months, so you have an idea of how disruptive it is, and having done it for free, the thought of $1000 for doing the same thing may sound nice now, but be sure to extrapolate it out another 6 months or so of being tethered 24x7 to work, and price it based on how you're going to feel then, not now.

I haven't dug into the news, but I'd be surprised if we've seen the end of the Voltec hybrid powertrain - we'll probably just see it in cute-utes.
Have you tried zestar? It is patent encumbered like honeycrisp use to be, but quite nice! Like the honeycrisp of old.
It runs full ardupilot code, has a ublox gps chip, a taoglas gps antenna, and the video board and transmitter software is open source.
It runs a tiny webserver that allows you to configure any of the ardupilot variables, and is compatible with most of the ardupilot ground control software.
Then an original IBM PC (5150) as Dad was an IBMer.
First computer I purchased myself was a Mac SE30 for Mathematica.
Got the Imagewriter printer with it, which I later traded straight up for an Amiga 500. Best deal I ever made.
The point being that even in the extremely, vastly unlikely case that things would progress to an actual patent infringement suit that you lose, in the end, it may not matter, based on:
And even if Facebook could assert a valid patent protecting React, the damages are very speculative. I cannot find a case awarding a judgement for infringing a patent otherwise licensed through open source, but it’s not a case I’d want to file. “Hey Juror #2, please award my client Facebook money because we pulled a patent license that’s otherwise granted to millions of other people free of charge.”
The e28 has a shorter wheelbase than the 1 series sedan (but is longer overall due to its stylish 80's big overhangs...) It is also narrower than the 1 series.
