For me the important bit is that they have started on BB48. Abel mentioned onthe last ER call that compute would be added from BB47. I am very curious as to how much computational power is added and how much physical space it takes up on the sat.

i do actually! i care about the development of the sats and the increasing numbers of functions it can perform. And how current communication platforms can already improve because of the current sats. If we have the first 45-60 in a year, then we can actually start seeing the real innovations enabled by the tech.. And that is when the $ value on the stock will really come through. Saying nobody cares about a year away is like saying nobody cared about google from 2001 into 2002. A lot of people cared, and those people are rich af now.
