Southwest Airlines looking at in-flight WiFi
According to a story in the Denver Post, Southwesy Airlines is seriously considering a pilot program (sorry, couldn't resist) to test WiFi connectivity on its flights. I fly SWA all the time - I broke the 100 flights in 12 months threshold this year which means my wife can join me for free anytime I fly for the next year. Having WiFi on the plane would be a great win, especially with my WiFi-enabled Nokia devices (N800 and N93) which both work very nicely with a Bluetooth keyboard on the snack tray.
