For years and years, it was kind of a battle, especially in the US where the difference between the three operators was what famous actor are they putting on TV for their ads or what's the iPhone subsidy? We're about to bring an actual differentiated product for you and I to talk about related to, well, I wanna switch to Starlink Mobile because that one has global roaming and doesn't have any dead zones and I can go out into the desert or climb up a mountain and I still have all of my services and full 5G quality service, that's pretty special. And I think when we roll that out in the near term here in the next two years, that will be a game changer for the entire, you know, I would say mobility sector. And my guess has become table stakes for everybody else where they have to come up with a solution also. But more importantly, I think for us, it's great for the consumer, right? is if towers go down or something happens, like it has fire, flood, whatever you wanna say, now you're still connected. Now you can call for help or you can let your loved ones know that you're okay. Like these are things that, I think people have always wanted and they just thought wasn't possible. And so I think that's more than anything else, what's great about it is it's a significant opportunity. I mean, if you talk about just annual TAM or total addressable market between those two portions of the connectivity business about $1.6 trillion a year. That's great financially, but I think it's also the fact that both of those businesses are gonna bring great services in attacking terrestrial markets that exist today on earth, but because we're doing it from space, we end up with a product that's just better for everybody." ### Post #2 by @mmonis > **Author:** Monis ([@mmonis](https://x.com/mmonis)) > **Metrics:** 5 likes · 0 retweets · 2 comments · 282 views > **Posted:** 2026-06-08T13:49:16+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/mmonis/status/2063981689102352576](https://x.com/mmonis/status/2063981689102352576) > > "I bought $TSLA , $CRDO and $AAOI near the lows as per WL and Bookmap Closed $ASTS" --- *Generated by Context Pilot Social Intelligence Engine.*
