So a pale imitation of the earlier (now defunct) Connexion by Boeing service. Still, better than nothing and hopefully just the start of onboard internet becoming widely available within a few years.

I’m excited that it is at least a step forward! I was so stoked when Jet Blue first said they were working on this- but disapointed when it took them so long. Here’s hoping it will become REAL internet soon (with equal opportunity email for everyone!)

Why on earth are they starting off with Blahoo? World’s worst e-mail… once my account randomly disappeared. That’s to say nothing of their horrible IM.

this will make my husband happy, as he and his crack berry are never far apart. I know there are other handheld options out there, but does RIM really have the largest market share? Maybe it is a way for Jetblue to put a stake in the sand and see where it goes. Anyway, I think it is a good step in the right direction….

Your comment is misleading about the $10. Jetblue has said its service will be free if I read correctly.

Supposedly the 1Mhz spectrum (Operated by LiveTV) doesn’t have the capability to push ‘the ultimate internet experience’ just yet. Baby steps.
