Why not clue us into the route you're taking?

Forget just F, AA has powerports THROUGHOUT almost all of their aircraft. It is a huge incentive for me to fly AA, because I know that I will always get to plug in my laptop.

To the OP - I would suggest splurging on $100-200 on a portable DVD player. Your selection of movies will be FAR better than any airplane in-flight entertainment system, and you will be able to take the system with you on any flight in the future...
