It launched with two planes having it, with more rolling out in 2015.

Would be nice is widebodies could have this as well for use within North America. You could be on a transcon booked on an A321 planning on doing some work and if it gets upgauged you're out of luck.

But AC did say they are examining satellite options for the widebody fleet, that should work over the continent too so an option for internet will eventually exist.

Any Wifi experiences with doucheb@gs talking out loud on Skype or any other similar high d0uche-factor behaviour?
If not yet, it is absolutely bound to happen.
Naturally, someone here will advise me that it is my responsibility to tell said d0uchebag to keep it down, rather than the d0uchebag's responsibility and common courtesy to keep it down.

I just get a good chuckle out of the rules being different from country to country - because you know, the planes act differently in different countries, 
.
Ie: In Canada / USA, transmitting and receiving functions have to be turned off. In the EU, they may be left on gate to gate.

First off, it doesn't work too well (usually).
But, what I will say is that when it's in the J pod I don't find it bothers me or distracts me even if it's right next to me. There is enough separation that I just don't care.
In Y however I will agree that it would probably annoy me.

GOD, can you imagine sitting next to someone in Y and they are yelling into the mike on Skype on the many chat programs out there.
What if the person you are talking too decides to do a show knowing full well that many others are watching?
I have to say when I flew on US and LH the live net was fun!

Gogo turns itself on and at 10,000 feet.
Below this you are supposed to have your laptop stowed.
So when the plane starts descending they are indeed supposed to tell you to put your junk away, and cutting of your internet connection is encouragement to put that junk away if you missed the announcement.
