So if I'm reading this right they'll basically have low orbit cell towers in space but only really capable of text messaging?

They are capable of voice and data but are only permitted for text messaging due to transmit power restrictions.

Thanks for the clarification.

Something tells me those restrictions will be lifted within a year.
