You can use this site to see if there are hotspots near you : https://explorer.helium.com/

Pretty interesting!
I've read a few references about Helium, added it to my watchlist, and let's see how it will grow.

I'm very interested in HNT mining. They only problem is. There are no hotspots near me. Only 1 at 10km away. And the delivery times are going nuts. I don't want to buy something and get it delivered in 3 or 4 months. Maybe the crypro is crashing by that time.

How you know delivery is 3-4 months for what device?

One of the popular miners (Bobcat) takes 12-24 weeks for shipping.
Taken from Bobcatminer's order page:

Quote
1. Only send USDC on the ERC20 network
2. Deposit of wrong tokens, addresses, or networks cannot be recovered.     
3. Instruction on how to pay with Coinbase and Binance.
4. Estimated shipping time is 12-20 weeks from order date.
5. We cannot ship to a PO Box.
6. If you are new to Coinbase you MUST complete a KYC verification prior to starting your order. IF you complete the KYC during the order process it can lead to a delay in your payment. This can timeout the transaction and you will not receive an order confirmation.

But yeah, the upfront and operational cost is lower than GPUs rig(s) or ASICs.
