Looks like a good deal, but their coverage is far from world wide.

Geez, satellite service has gotten cheap.
Globalstar is offering unlimited minutes for $65/mo, 12 month contract, free phone included.

Interesting. I wonder what call charges are incurred besides "airtime".

Yeah, globalstar doesn’t have satellite interconnects so they only provide service where the constellation is in view of a ground station.
Allegedly there’s a $50 activation fee and that’s it.
they had a $50 activation fee for their prepaid service, probably what killed it.
if only iridium had an unlimited plan.
Globalstar has been mocked as "LocalStar" in the past.
looking at their coverage map I'm not suprised.
