An excellent post!!
TG has finally released more details on the JFK-BKK product. It will be 3 class (Business, Premium Econ, Econ). According to reports they had a problem spacing the premium econ seats at 368 so they upped the pitch to 42" in a 2-3-2 config. Standard econ is 36" in a 3-4-3 config. Business will be a spacebed lay-flat product with 60" pitch. AVOD should be available throughout the plane with wireless internet service to follow in the coming months.
I'm hoping that they eventually bring this product to the LAX market as I don't want to fly 6 hours to JFK just to catch a 17 hour flight.
