"It’s a long flight from Munich to San Francisco, even non-stop. But recently two geeks cut the distance dramatically with a few at-hand tools: iChat AV, iSight, 17-inch PowerBook G4, an Airbus and an orbiting satellite."

I still haven't been a flight with wireless Internet. Last flight I took (last month to Taiwan on Cathay Pacific), they offerent plugin Internet, but it was quite expensive. It'll be quite nice when you can get free wireless, and be able to plug in your power supply. Flying will never be the same.
