Actually, I'm a little confused. Will these LEO sats be 5G? What
good are
they if they aren't 5G? How are we going to get remote surgery and
self-driving vehicles without 5G?
I wish these big corporations would make up their minds, do I need a
small
cell 1000 feet away because <reasons>, or do I need thousands of
satellites
whizzing overhead 50 miles up? Seems like polar opposites, but
apparently
we gotta have 'em.

So I guess what I'm saying is technology doesn't sell, marketing
sells, and it all depends on who they partner with to actually sell
service to end customers. Also of course they are not the only
company doing this. OneWeb for example. SpaceX has the advantage of
having their own launch service and being able to piggyback on other
payloads.
