Well I rely on the IFE to keep me busy since I do not own an ipod or any of those handy dandy gadgets that America has been so obsessed with. On a Transcon, I could use that movie as a time passer. I can't sleep on airplanes and I can only do Sudoku for so long before my eyes go crossed. But then again, I won't be flying revenue on US much longer so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
