Re: whatever

Never been on a Delta flight that didn't give me the whole can of soda after pouring those four ounces in the cup for me.

The people who "need" broadband on a plane are the same people who pay or who work for a company that pays way too much for a business class seat that arrives at the airport at the same time that the coach seats arrive. The differeences, are a bit more legroom and a bigger seat, actual silverware served on a china plate. More drinks/free drinks, and less people to wait in line for when you have to go to the bathroom. Other than that, there's no advantages.

Are people going to have to buy a special laptop adapter that fits into a special proprietery fitting for each airline? Are they going to be available for rental with the airline? Are the people who "need" inet access on a plane going to actually use it?

Delta does give a full drink, I believe it was American Eagle or Southwest that was the cheap one.

As far as business class "needing" BB, there are people who travel coach that have the same "need", they are just more frugal or lack the upgrade miles (or in my case with American, flying cheapo non-upgradable government tickets).

Good question on how it will work, it would make too much sense to be a standard system that most newer laptops have built-in.
