An estimated 590,000 buyers paid a £74 ($100) deposit to secure one, collectively handing the venture roughly £43.7 million ($59 million). As of May 2026, not a single confirmed customer has received the device. Now, a fresh wave of anger is spreading across MAGA forums after buyers received communication making clear that their money is, for all practical purposes, gone.

      I pay around $50 with Bell. It does everything I need. Granted, I think I only get 15-20 GB download, but my phone is almost always connected to external wifi. Some months I barely use more than 5 GB.

      Canadian here - I pay less than $30 taxes in for a grandfathered plan that started with 2GB of data and they kept giving me retention bonuses in the last few years. So now I have about 25GB of data.
