in-flight WiFi

Genius, pure genius. Alaska Air claiming that by 2008 they'll have WiFi on their planes. Think of the possibilities:

• no more boring re-run episodes of obscure British shows
• no more lies from the front cabin, you check delays for yourself and find out if the airport is closed for fog, or the captain took a wrong turn at Albuquerque
• That presentation you were going to work on when you arrived at 9pm, done!
• watch plane crashes on youTube.com and scare the person next to you
