More than 150ms. There are currently satellite internet services that you can get that use geosynchronous orbits outside of that 150ms zone.
The idea is sound, but the zone needs to be a bit bigger in reality. I think the moon is close enough to earth to be in the same zone (assuming antennas on "both sides", and special routing protocols to deal with day/night cycles)
