Connexion - Sadly missed

Just last night, i was having a chat on Yahoo messenger with unca CGK, and he was aboard NH6 going from Tokyo to Los Angeles. So he fired up his webcam and gave me a tour of the All Nippon Boeing 777-300ER New Style First Class cabin. This was all made possible of course, by connexion by boeing.

Sadly, connexion by boeing is being wound up on the 31st of December this year, so no more onboard internet past that date. Apparently it was never going to a viable proposition, so that's that.

I've found it a valuable companion over the many long and boring miles through the night. No amount of entertainment aboard can make time pass by like a skype/msn/yahoo connection to your loved ones and friends on the ground. I will miss it!
