Hmmm...it's more like you buy a 8 hour flight, UA flies you toward your destination for 2 hours and then just stops.
My last internet experience was ORD-OGG. Now, I fully expected it wouldn't work over the Pacific. But I didn't expect it would stop working just as we passed Denver.
What I'm saying is perhaps they should forego this for a more reliable system, such as in-seat AVOD. But I'll admit I don't have a complete understanding of how the tablets will work. Perhaps content will be loaded directly to the tablet?
I have my own devices anyway. If they just follow through on putting power in their planes, I actually don't care what they do with these tablets.
