The most recent reports say that they're planning on 24 launches in the next 12
months. That would put them at about a 1400 satellite constellation. Basic
service would be in the neighborhood of 300-600 satellites. Double that (if
reports are accurate) would allow them to provide service to most of North
America.
One metric that I've not seen is what kind of sky aperture is required to
provide uninterrupted service. There are areas around here with really dense
tree cover, and there is only the smallest open sky window (less than 5
degrees, if that). Would that be open enough for there to be a satellite in
view all the time?

I initially thought they would launch as B2B, but based on their job
advertisements etc it really looks like they are spooling up for direct
consumer sales. I would be amazed if they bother selling anything under 100m
service. No idea how they think these things are going to get mounted on the
roof but I think people are really going to be blindsided by how fast this
thing launches.
