The latency here is the main takeaway for me. It's phenomenal for a space based system.
I spent some time at my parents cabin during the quarantine and the only option there is satellite internet. SSH with a ping of multiple seconds is rather frustrating. That and all the systems which have bad bandwidth because that much latency makes them think they've lost connection.
As my parents are both techies, they are desperately hoping they're accepted into the beta.
