Post from 30,000 feet - Happy Holidays!!!

I'm sitting on my flight marveling at technology. Free WiFi on a Delta flight courtesy of Ebay, 30 minutes at a time. Surprisingly, it's fast and works well. Speakeasy says 500K down and 250K up - I may be throttled to that.

Anyway - hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday season with family or friends.

I have even trouble getting off the ground with anything new.

I take it you are headed home for the holidays, take care, and enjoy the Christmas season

Happy Holidays Gil! I'm sure New Zealand is nice as always. I hope you're doing well.

I'm headed to meet up with my wife for our honeymoon in Tahiti! We've been mostly apart for the first 2 months of our marriage. We'll be moving to Naples, Italy early next year.

Is that a domestic (lower 48) flight?

Yep it's a domestic US flight - pretty cool. There is a blue wi-fi logo in the aircraft under the overhead baggage containers. Most medium sized aircraft and larger seem to have it. The little puddle jumpers don't seem to.

It is very cool indeed. I wash there was a reasonably priced option for web access during transcontinental flights though. 8 to 9 hours to Europe; 12 to 15 to East Asia... could really help to offset the rearend/backside pains...
