+1 Personally, I think the AVOD discussion and upgrade is an entire waste of money for United in the same vain as the airphones were. Maybe it will be nice for the next couple of years but I personally bring all I need digitally on my PC today and with the "iPAD" type devices coming along with AC power, UAL might look back and realize they invested dollars that will lose their appeal much quicker than planned. Do you really want the same old movies and songs?
Maybe they should just rent AVOD devices...then again maybe the new 777 devices will have a credit card swipe and they are way ahead of me.
