Since the recent release of the new Thuraya IP terminal http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e249/neiljamieson/ThurayaIPpricingv12Read-Only-p3-3.jpg
There is a lot of speculation about how well it will perform against the Inmarsat BGAN range.
Thuraya seems more confidant that they have more capacity, and they certainly have a higher streaming rate (384kbps). There is no voice however, but with an unlimited monthly useage package why not use VOIP or even SIP???
you can have a look at it on www.dubaisatellite.com

Iridium vs. Thuraya
The Iridium 9505A handset is really functional and rugged, but bulky. It is the only phone which offers completly global coverage. The Thuraya handsets are lighter and more elegant with far more features especially the new SG-2510, which offers full dual mode GSM and satellite. Do we really need a camera though? Some say it is worth having because the phone offers GmPRS service with a 60kbps download and push mail....nothing like getting that photo sent when you are in the middle of nowhere!
Thuraya, Iridium, Inmarsat...which one is for me?
How do we decide what is the best phone, sounds so confusing....
