Only a fool tries to connect thru a sat link inside of a Mall when he could use a cellphone link instead.

Taking a product and using it in a way that it isn't intended and then complaining that it doesn't work is funny.

Maybe I should go buy a Globalstar phone and take it scuba diving with me and see if it works underwater.

Or, put another way, Globalstar phones rely on the local cellular network as well.

Same with the paging. You either need global paging service, or you don't. If you don't need it, compalaining that it costs too much for your once a year vacation to vermont is stupid- you aren't the target customer.
