SpaceX has discussed a potential deal with Boost Mobile to launch its own mobile service, as reported by The Washington Post. The agreement may involve SpaceX acquiring Boost Mobile or accessing its network, as the company aims to establish Starlink as a major mobile carrier. Elon Musk spoke with Charlie Ergen, chairman of Boost Mobile's parent company EchoStar, about the potential deal last month. Boost Mobile's network is currently powered by T-Mobile and AT&T, indicating that SpaceX may need permission from these carriers to proceed with its service.
