In-flight WiFi
I'm currently writing this entry from Delta flight 1967 on the way to Albuquerque, on the way to Santa Fe. This is the first flight I've taken that is equipped with in-flight WiFi service, powered by Gogo. Representatives handed out complimentary access cards, so I decided to try it out. Even if the cards weren't available, the service charge is reasonable: $13 for a 24-hour pass. On a longer flight, I'd definitely consider paying for it.
As for the connection, it's a bit spotty - sometimes cuts out, but is fast enough - somewhere between 500-900kbit/s downstream, 200kbit/s upstream. Nothing over which I'd consider watching streaming HD video, but enough to ensure connectivity. I'm writing this post @34,000 ft. somewhere over Arkansas - maybe I'll blame connectivity issues on that - sorry Crystal.
More later.
