That may have sounded more terse than I intended…  the starlink ordering
system is kinda confusing — there are several possible options I’ve seen:
- full order - your cell is open, you can pay them $600 and get a dish soon
(2-3wks?)
- pre-order - mid-late 2021 *coverage*, first come first served
- pre-order - at capacity - late 2022+, first come first served
- not available

They have over 500k pre orders, and given the chip shortage, I have my
doubts that all of those who ordered with *coverage* slated by EoY will all
receive hardware by then.

With that being said, I hope you get yours soon!
