Thuraya IP- The new broadband on the block

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
