While this is a bit OT, what are the technical specs on the WIFI that will become available? Things like bandwidth, VPN Capability, etc.? I generally work on the planes, but its generally on off-line type stuff. Design docs, presentations, coding and such stuff. Its actually kind of nice, as I can get 3-4 hours of uninterrupted work done, which is sometimes hard while in the office.

I'm really curious about the quality of the connection in terms of drop outs. My clients VPN is really sensitive to broken connections and its a real pain at time to reestablish my host and server sessions once I reconnect a dropped VPN Connection. Also as my email is Lotus Notes, its a likes a lot of bandwidth to function efficiently.
