Wireless Internet Reviews

There has been much talk about allowing cell phone calls on flights lately, though it appears the American public does not favor such a measure. We enjoy silence when we can get it, and there’s nothing worse than sitting next to someone yipping away when you’re stuck in a metal tube for hours on end. Silent communication, of course, is just fine. That’s why Virgin American plans to offer WiFi service on all of their planes. This will keep you in touch while in flight without annoying other passengers.

The service will commence on November 22 with a “beta flight” above San Francisco. They’ll then add flights, one per week, until their entire fleet is covered. This should be in early 2009.

The best part about the service is that there are no filters. No, no even for porn, which is sure to make a few passengers uncomfortable. Hey, at least on the subway you can get off. I have a feeling porn filters will come in due time.
