Its really not that bad. Everyone has devices that will last the duration of a transcon these days. If not, I dont know what kind of laptops youre buying.
At least our seats are super comfortable.
Not sure "everybody" does but a large segment that cares about IFE will have one. Those that don't still carry their books.
Remember - these planes will be around for a good part of this decade. We should be thinking "what will people be doing wrt IFE in five years". Technology certainly will be much more entrenched in the flying public then.
