This is just the beginning.
My guess is that there will be as many Starlink direct to cell phone satellites as there are for our high bandwidth terminals.
As a rough rule of thumb, however, bandwidth will be ~1/10th as high for phones vs a dedicated Starlink antenna (physics is the law). Still a major gamechanger.
