You can buy Starlink right now if you live in parts of the northern US or parts of Canada. They're expanding constantly. I've have one for a few months now and love it. Interest was so great they asked the FCC to expand licensing to 5M people. Search "starlink review" on youtube for many examples.

> "Despite the fact that SpaceX has yet to formally advertise this system's services, nearly 700,000 individuals represented in all 50 states signed up over a matter of just days to register their interest in said services at www.starlink.com. To ensure that SpaceX is able to accommodate the apparent demand for its broadband Internet access service, SpaceX Services requests a substantial increase in the number of authorized units."[1]

700k signups is pretty good for no advertising.

For what it's worth, Starlink is fulfilling beta orders in Arizona, New Mexico, and continental Europe, so it's much more than "northern US" by now.
