> Apple has partnered with Globalstar to use geostationary satellites

globalstar's existing network and licenses have nothing to do with geostationary at all.

please don't comment on things like this if you have fundamental misunderstandings about the nature of different types of mutually incompatible satellite network technology.

it's a well documented fact that typing in all lower case is very slightly faster for persons accustomed to it as a regular practice, which is a completely different thing than fundamentally misunderstanding the technical parameters of a L/S-band LEO vs geostationary data link, if we want to be pedantic about it.
