Idk. I have never made a call via satellite. I think the reasons satellite internet is so unpopular is because of the high latency, and unreliability. edit: from wikipedia"The cost of making calls from a satellite phone varies from around $0.15 to $2 per minute,"
Does, uh, 15c/m - $2/min not seem a bit high to you? Compare that to your landline/cell phone bill. There's a reason you're being offered flat rate fees for those services but still need to pay per minute on satellite."I don't know, I've never personally done it" is a douchey thing to say in this context.
gankige, al is as good a nail to hang this on as any i can think of. consider, free speech -- anonymus speech. i love it, good as porn, may be better!!
