Looks like on October 9, Canada's CRTC approved the BITS license for Starlink.

I do not know whether there are other hoops that SpaceX will have to jump through to get to a public beta.  Perhaps ISED approval.

New Zealand is a perfect country for Starlink.  There are so many rural off grid people and towns and only a few ground stations to cover it all.
Superheavy + Starship the final push to launch commit!

Seems they have some trademark trouble at New Zealand: What’s Elon Musk’s Starlink doing in New Zealand?

Quote
NZ Intellectual Property Office records show SpaceX applied for three trademarks for use of the Starlink name in NZ in January. One application was for class 9 goods relating to commercial satellites, and the other two were for class 38 and class 42 services relating to satellite communication services.

BusinessDesk found through an Official Information Act request that all three were rejected in the same month due to similarities with trademarks held by Subaru since 2012 for its Subaru Starlink in-car technology system.

Starlink to launch in Germany before the end of the year according to SpaceX-Manager

DeepL translation from reddit:

Quote
Starlink, a subsidiary of Elon Musk's space company SpaceX, plans to bring its satellite Internet service to Germany this year. This is what SpaceX manager Hans Königsmann told WirtschaftsWoche. "If everything goes according to plan, we will launch in Germany before the end of this year," says Königsmann. In Germany, almost 20 percent of all households are not yet provided with Internet access with speeds of more than 100 Mbit per second. Starlink was launched on a trial basis in the USA a few weeks ago.

Quote
"Our mission is to bring fast Internet to remote areas of the world," says Königsmann. According to Königsmann, this will require 15 additional Starlink missions. "But we are already well positioned in the north," he says. "That is why Germany is excellently suited as a market - we already have a good connection there". The details of the fee structure for Germany have not yet been decided. "But we will orient ourselves on what the local market allows," says Königsmann.

SpaceX 9/21 feedback to the Indian authorities.  Apparently, current Indian rules do not contemplate Ka-band allocations for gateways.

Here is some late November testimony to Canada's House of Commons by SpaceX's Patricia Cooper. Even though this is focused more to a lay audience, it does give some interesting nuggets and timing. For instance, Cooper reiterates that they want to do a launch this year or early next to a polar inclination. The difference in business models between Starlink (direct to consumer) and Telesat (partnering with current service providers) is also repeatedly mentioned.

Rumor on reddit that Starlink is in private beta in New Zealand:

Quote
It's in private beta here. I believe less than 10 units.


Also public invites going out in UK

Quote
UK invites are happening for real!

I've just received confirmation from an official verified source.

The first emails did have broken links but they should be fixed.

Starlink is also a registered company in Italy under the name of "Starlink Italy S.R.L."

Can't link anything as there are no public links for that, but the company was registered on 15/12/2020 with the sole shareholder being "STARLINK HOLDINGS NETHERLANDS B.V." located at "AMSTERDAM, BURGEMEESTER STRAMANWEG 122".

The declared corporate purpose is "LA CONDUZIONE, LA MANUTENZIONE E LA GESTIONE DI GATEWAY COSTITUITE DA ANTENNE PARABOLICHE E LA RELATIVA FORNITURA DI SERVIZI E/O RETI DI COMUNICAZIONE ELETTRONICA VIA SATELLITE, COMPRESI I SERVIZI INTERNET VIA SATELLITE", which translates to "THE OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND MANAGEMENT OF GATEWAYS CONSISTING OF PARABOLIC ANTENNAS AND THE RELEVANT PROVISION OF SERVICES AND / OR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION NETWORKS VIA SATELLITE, INCLUDING INTERNET SERVICES VIA SATELLITE"
