It is pricey, but I will be all over this regardless. I HATE flying because of the cramped, boring quarters. This will at least make it livable.

Agreed. I despise flying and anything that can make it a little more bearable will help.

I guess I am just saying that there are plenty of things to do if you have a laptop already. I usually fire up a movie and watch it during the flight. Then I could use my Ipod, Nintendo DS, and PSP.

I guess more people would purchase this than I thought. I guess to me, its a little pricey. Especially with all the things I have with me already that have entertainment value.

Not everything done is about the in-frequent pleasure traveler. It's clearly priced for the business traveler.. at least at this time.

I know some people here believe that when you're in the plane you should sit there comatose, but, there are some people that NEED to stay connected while in flight and this $12.95 fee can make the difference of landing a million dollar contract or not.

Also, considering the amount of grumbling about how if someone purchases an internet connection that it's theirs to do as they see fit, I'm sure they are purposely pricing this out of reach for a good amount of people - to which I applaud.

When the technology matures, I'm sure there will be some adjustments to the prices, and I'm sure that frequent fliers will get a better price, as well.
