Is this true? I've got startlink at home and you need a pretty large view of the open sky. Am I going to be able to receive or make a call while in a wooeded area, or indoors or anywhere else without a large view to the open sky? I'm wondering whether there's something in-between the satellite and your cell phone, like a cell tower.
Think about how a GPS receiver works. Long range, low bandwidth. EBS messages will be cake to recieve. 911 calls available to everyone with 4G LTE phone per federal law. Elon did say that in good conditions, even low res video is possible.
