We need to get in the mid-1000s to be able to have enough satellites in view that when you are standing on the earth you have continuous coverage. Right now there are satellites flying above, but the signals drop out because there aren't enough of them. One pass says you have great coverage, and then there's an intermittent gap if you're outside of our coverage zone.
We expect by the end of the first quarter of next year we'll be able to serve up to the mid-50°N latitude. Then for the Far North we need to deploy polar-orbiting satellites that go pole to pole. We actually have that very close in mind. We expect to launch our first polar deployment potentially before the end of the year and certainly in the beginning of next year.
That's for the space coverage. I want to come back to that technology question. The next question is getting this very sophisticated dish cost low. That partly has some consumer electronics dynamics scale of volume. It also has a lot to do with changing some technology. We're building those ourselves as well. We're trying to move along from that early adopter phase to a really affordable consumer price, but it won't be in the first stage that we offer the beta.
