The original orders I placed never panned out, and eventually were canceled, but when I heard about the new service map feature on the Starlink site, it took all the guess work out of the order process. I live in Eugene but had to select some small town near the coast to place the order. When it arrived, I tried to install the starlink app on 3 (Three) different android devices, but it refused... Grrrr. So I found some third party Starlink app and tried that, but it would just exit immediately. Though the surprising thing is, that when I powered it up in Eugene, it just worked without the app and despite Eugene not being available for new service. I also tried it in another town that didn't have service and it just worked. A couple of days later, we moved it about 50 miles from the registered service area, also out in the boonies and it's been working great ever since. Never touched the app, and never turned on roaming. Not sure how typical this is.     Ciao,     Clif On 5/12/22 18:39, Bruce Perens wrote: > Starlink accepted an order for my address in Berkeley, CA, today.
