Joe Hansen(@joehansen):Four of Europe's biggest phone companies want to compete with Starlink from space. Between them they own zero satellites. Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telefonica and Vodafone signed a letter of intent today to explore a joint bid for the EU's satellite-to-phone airwaves. They'd build the ground side in Europe and pick a satellite partner later. Starlink is already sending texts straight to regular phones from orbit. Anyone can sign a letter of intent.
