I think it’s super cool and I love the new satellite animation. I have a feeling sooner or later Apple is going to tie this into some sort of subscription package requirement like Apple One.

How sure are you that it is FREE (at least for now)? If so, how much? I am interested because I cruise monthly.

So, I have trouble getting a cell phone connection yet satellite is fine? Weird. How does a phone have enough power/signal to send a signal up to a satellite? Inquiring minds want to know!

If I’m in a low signal area and my wife is not, and she sends me a text will it go to a satellite and then down to me?
