Amazon's satellite net in 2024

Dave Limp, Amazon's senior vice president of devices and services, revealed the timeline at a satellite industry trade show in Washington, DC, on Tuesday. He also showcased various prototype user terminals that future customers will use to tap into the satellite constellation. The prototypes included three different sized antennas, including a small seven-inch-square model only slightly bigger than an Amazon Kindle.

"This is dramatically different than anything you've ever seen" from a low-Earth orbit constellation, Limp said during the fireside chat.
