T-Mobile is looking for Starlink satellite-to-cell beta testers
Testing will be free for post-paid customers.
T-Mobile is letting customers sign up to be the first to test its upcoming Starlink satellite direct-cell service, which promises to fill in 500,000 square miles of terrestrial cell tower dead zones in the US.
