MacRumors saysthat the logo's depiction of a constellation-filled night sky indicates that the iPhone 14's long-rumored satellite connectivity capability may be unveiled at the Cupertino event.

Following T-Mobile's introduction of satellite connectivity, Tim Farrar, a satellite communications expert, said in a series of tweets that it was intended to anticipate Apple's release of its own satellite connectivity feature for the iPhone in collaboration with Globalstar, Inc.(NYSE: GSAT).

Globalstar announced in February that it had purchased 17 new satellites in order to offer "continuous satellite services" to a "potential customer," which could be Apple.

As it builds anticipation for the event, Apple, in typical manner, was light on details about what would be unveiled, and who its new partners will be.

The event will kick off at 10 a.m. ET on Wednesday.

the only real player in town with that is Musk Starlink - the others too small in prototype stage and don't have an in space network yet and will take years to build them.

Starlink just announced a partnership with T-mobile, Starlink, I kind of doubt AAPL would be announcing anything with Starlink yet. 

Otherwise Starlink has to start v2 launches though to scale cellular because they need a giant antenna so even they are just at the planning stages, but their existing network will let them manage data transfers to ground stations and between other satellites

a couple years ago I posted a big writeup on Starlink and it's long term potential saying that it could eventually become the largest telecom company in the word if they can expand to their goals. here's a link to that post
