Cool! Didn't realise they actually have a beta test up and running with hundreds of users. 50-150 Mbps downloads speeds and 20-40 ms pings. $400 for equipment and $100/month for service. Pricey, but I paid more than that for satellite in the past, with horrendous latency and 20 Mbps speeds. It'll be a godsend for people in the sticks ... or a hundred yards from civilisation in a blackspot.

After spending the last few days with my 4g service barely giving me 1meg service, please hurry up and come to Ireland. And the sad reality, there is an eir fibre cable right outside my gate, but me and the neighbour were told we couldn't get a connection.
