I believe it was. Basically the 777 programing for both directions minus the "local" movies (no BBC, Japanese stuff etc). It also had Eye on American East and West.
UA-Eagle,
I don't know if it was CC'd. If it was, I didn't find it. However, if you'd like I'll check more completely on my return home Friday.
After spending some more time thinking about it, this is definately a great thing. Bottom line, I flew the SAME flight last Monday. Today's flight was the same price and far more enjoyable.
2 other comments: I'm not sure how well these will hold up. Their touch screen and well...people eat like pigs on a plane due to limited mobility. I'm sure we're going to see greasey spots, etc in the near future.
Next, I checked the Archos website and apparely the 704 model that AA uses holds up to 16 hours of battery life. That means if it's charged then my complain of the power cord is eliminated.
