They haven’t done a great job of marketing it. $100-120 a month isn’t bad and it beats the pants off of all the other satellite internet services.
Have they needed to? My mom has no high speed internet to her house. She signed up for Starlink like 2 years ago. Still on the waitlist.
My coworkers mom signed up for it about 1.5 years ago and got connected about a year ago in rural WA. Are you sure you're still on the list?

Yeah, they were notified they'll have the chance soon. I think it depends on your area. As I understand it, they were being very limited with accepting users as they continue to expand capacity.
