Hot stewardesses in gogo boots... that'll do it.
Oh wait, this is something different.

Why do you think it would fail?

I am sure business travellers might as well. Why do you think it would fail? Just based on the track record. Every time they try this out it goes bust. Some will pay for this, but most won't. And when the airlines realize it is not profitable, they will probably just cut it the next time the airline industry hits a tough patch for profits.

I could see this being a problem on short flights as another poster has indicated, but I would imagine there would be a market for this on long-haul domestic flights (3 to 5 hours or more?).
However, I do agree that this system may be doomed from the start, as it uses a ground-based approach, which automatically rules out its use on most, if not all, international flights out of the USA.

Eh? | Which are the only flights you'd need it. Other wise you have something to look at. Not just ocean for as far as you can see. |
