I want to thank the OP for taking time out of his schedule to spend time with us during the Delta FlyerTalk DO and for the promo code above. I perceive the gesture to be one indicative of the camaraderie we shared.
I also want to thank Aircell/Gogo Inflight Internet for their sponsorship of our dinner last night at Prime. It was incredible.
Great! Many thanks - I'll definitely take advantage of this. Had been meaning to try it out for quite some time and this makes for even better persuasion.
Location: ATL, but want to Expatriate to SE Asia ASAP

Many thanks to Gogo for the dinner last night and also this code. My coworkers fly a fair bit as well and they will appreciate this a lot!
The dinner at Prime was excellent and I enjoyed the presentation on how Gogo works. I work in IT and it was interesting to hear some of the details. I look forward to using the service for fun and work in the future.
So any of you that saw the presentation with an IT mind want to share a basic overview of how it works? Inquiring minds want to know - I know the basics, but curious what if anything they are getting bandwidth wise and how they plan to combat P2P and Streaming video - which plagues a lot of hotel internet. (And hotel internet can have a much fatter pipe)
A big 2 thumbs up for your professional and informative presentation, some of the best h'or dourves I have ever had, and a perfectly cooked steak! Great evening.
Thanks again!

Cellular connection from an antenna on the plane (obviously bigger/stronger signal than your phone would have) to one of 90 towers on the ground across the USA. I believe that any given plane maxes out at about 3Mbit but I'm willing to be corrected on that one.
