>The user antennas are likely to be quite expensive at first (several thousand dollars). Cost reduction of the user antennas is the biggest hurdle Starlink currently faces. Nobody knows yet how much SpaceX will charge for the antenna or service. One of Starlink's competitors OneWeb was able to aquire a user antenna which is apparently a breakthrough in cost reduction at $15 [0]. I would assume the manufacturer has a contractual agreement with OneWeb, but I can imagine that Starlink could develop a similarly priced antenna with it's greater resources.
