Amazon Now Has Enough Satellites in Orbit to Launch Its Starlink Competitor
Amazon's Project Leo satellite broadband service has crossed the deployment threshold needed for commercial launch, The Verge reported July 2, with roughly 700 production satellites expected in orbit by the end of July after CEO Andy Jassy confirmed a 'mid-2026' launch target. The FCC waived Amazon's original July 30 deadline to have half its 3,232-satellite constellation in orbit, but is penalizing spectrum priority on satellites launched after that date to keep pressure on the rollout.

SpaceX Has an AI Device Prototype, Report Says — Then Musk Publicly Denies It
TechCrunch reported July 1 that SpaceX has been developing an AI-focused hardware device that 'sure sounds phone-ish,' citing internal sourcing on a project exploring a Starlink-connected, xAI-powered consumer device. Elon Musk publicly denied the specific report within hours, per The Verge, even as SpaceX's fresh public-market currency (following its roughly $2.1 trillion day-one IPO valuation) and its $60 billion all-stock acquisition of Cursor make a hardware-plus-AI push entirely plausible.
