This is incredible. The amount of embedded and mobile systems that can utilise this is big. Think vehicle (car, ship, etc) tracking, IoT devices, remote sensors in the field, even remote cameras in the field. Search and rescue devices, etc.

Lots of use-cases already proved by the more limited Iridium modules that are available on the market.

I'm however curious what having orders of magnitude more low-bandwidth devices connected to a satellite would do compared to having fewer high-bandwidth devices.

How would that affect the individual satellite's capacity?
