That’s something like 10 times their current limit. If true, that’s a big change.
If they get all the <150GB/mo customers and we only get the >150GB ones, that’s probably bad for us and good for them. I guess it comes down to marketing. If they can convince people it’s “virtually unlimited”, then we lose one of the 2 selling points we have against satellite (the other being gaming). If we can convince people there’s a risk they will go over and get a “talking to” whatever that entails, then we win. That argument is easier to make against cellular, where people want a fixed price and dread getting a $1000 cellphone bill even if they never even approach their data cap, just the uncertainty is a big negative. Not sure how much they would dread a “talking to”.

They did say they are putting up another satellite in 2016 which probably covers the areas they missed with the existing satellite. They are also offering voice for $10 per month.
