Not exactly PASig, you are comparing apples to oranges. Tesla's cell phone model is based on their Starlink constellation of satellites that does not use cell phone towers. This is a complete disruption of the cell phone industry, not just Apple themselves. BTW...Air Force Research Lab conducted a successful test of the satellites systems for command and control for military applications so it does function well. So, your comparison of Tesla with Microsoft's and others phones is a non-comparison.

Ummmm...so Tesla is going to try and introduce SAT phones using their new system, not cell phones. The system that no one can get and is having major issues and nowhere near the promised bandwidth?

Yes, apples and oranges

More like Apple and tomatoes.

Steve Jobs famously sold all his Apple shares except for one when the company fired him in 1985. He netted about $100 million. That original stake would be worth about $600 billion today (not to mention the $11.5 billion in annual dividends for those shares). Don't worry, though, his widow is still worth about $18 billion mainly thanks to Jobs' sale of Pixar to Disney.

Look at LWLG, POETF, and RKLY.

OK, I looked at them, and seems like they are all circling the drain. Care to elaborate?
