Who wants a Starlink phone? Is it technically possible? I know you can't see it but it's everywhere. It will allow SpaceX to deliver high bandwidth connectivity directly from the satellites to the phones. Since these frequencies are not supported in current phones, the chipset has to be modified to add these frequencies and that probably is a two year time frame. So the phones that are able to use the spectrum that was acquired probably start shipping in around two years. The net effect is that you should be able to watch videos anywhere on your phone. Elon is your vision for this that instead of you know having an AT&T account or and then roaming when you're in the UK or you're in India, it's just we could have one direct deal with Starlink all over the world eventually, not today but at some point. Is that the end goal? That basically we don't need a regional carrier, we have a global carrier and that would be you. That that would be one of the options. You should be able to have a Starlink like you have an AT&T or T-Mobile or Verizon or whatever. You could have an account with Starlink that works with your you know Starlink antenna at home with your Wi-Fi as well as on your phone.
