Original: SpaceX inks Qualcomm deal, putting Starlink closer to becoming the fourth major US wireless carrier
SpaceX has struck a deal with Qualcomm that brings Starlink's satellite-to-phone service closer to operating as a fourth major wireless carrier in the United States, alongside Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. The agreement would let devices with Qualcomm chips connect directly to Starlink satellites, expanding coverage to areas without cell towers. Analysts see it as a milestone in SpaceX's push from partner technology provider into direct mobile service.
