$633 (USD) per month in Zimbabwe is crazy. I could see Starlink becoming the internet backbone for micro-ISPs to slice.

I wonder if they used the official exchange rate or the black market one

That's if you pay in local currency. They have "promotional" packages in US dollars at $150 for a 100MBps line.

It's the price for 100 Mbps. You can pay for as low as 5.

[faraixyz]

I used to be quoted that for 20MBps and even 8MBps! these days it's a bit better since you can get that for about $150 if you're lucky enough to be near a fibre line.

100Mb/s continuously utilized is 100MB * 60 * 60 * 24 * 31 = 33 TB. AWS egress is $50/TB.

AWS is a perfect comparison because they are also crazy expensive for egress. You get 10 Gbit/s for around 600$ in every NA and European datacenter.
