While DTV is supposed to upload charges quicker than the handheld devices (DTV uses a system called WADL to wireless upload charges at airports equipped with the technology) they are certainly not charged in real time, and 99.9% positive United will never comp it, even for elites.
As part of service recovery or to entertain unaccompanied minors, it has been comped by some UA FAs.
