US had announced GoGo Vision 6-9 months before the merger was approved so that may be the source of crew talk/rumors. My guess, however, is that IFE content will be streamed from onboard servers to PEDs (FC/Business will use provided PED's). The current A330 AVOD may or may not be changed, although the greater selection of movies sounds like it may also become streamed content.

FWIW, onboard servers with streamed content for IFE is what WN is going with although they don't use GoGo but rather one of the other providers that has used satellite transmitted WiFi.
