There are bunch of Youtube videos by Starlink beta testers out now. Mostly people in the boondocks close to the Canadian border. Seems to be the consensus that the downlink is 20M regularly, with up to 80M sometimes, with ~35ms latency. That's pretty good.

T-Mobile has a great home internet service if you've got a signal out there. I've been using it for a couple of months now and really love it. The stand-alone modem has a battery in that keeps the service going for awhile when the power goes out. You might be able to rig up some kind of external battery but I haven't looked into that.
