> Looks like average price in the US is $6.00/GB. Are data allowances common in the USA for terrestrial data? In New Zealand >87% of the population can get 1gb connection for $61 USD with no data cap (and no long term contract, cheaper if you find a deal). One ISP (or brand) is offering a 10gb connection for $40 USD on a 24 month contract. >1g limited to a a small number of cities as far as I know. Our mobile internet costs a fortune, costing for example the cheapest non-prepaid plan from the largest telco is $27.50 USD for 4.5gb of data. |

Deprioritised starlink is $80 nzd / month which is cheaper than fiber or vdsl and on par with "unlimited" 4G/5G.
Mini is quite good option for boating (campsites usually are well connected here) provided it can cope with swell like bigger dishes do.
Edit: Strange they haven't integrated WiFi HaLow yet since it's primary target is rural customers who would benefit a ton from 1km radius signal...
