Boeing's Internet service

When I saw this article, I breathed a sigh of relief - thank goodness for one space without incoming e-mail!

Boeing to End Its Service for Using Internet Aloft - New York Times:

Boeing announced on Thursday that it planned to scrap its in-flight Internet service, saying there was not enough demand.

But then I saw Geler Marcel Reichart quoted with a good point...

"I will be extremely sad if this service ends," said Marcel Reichart, a managing director for strategy in Munich at Hubert Burda Media who flies frequently and used the service nearly a dozen times while flying to the United States. "There is a stable connection that allows me to get a full day of work done while speaking over Skype, sending e-mails and everything."

Ahh, tradeoffs.
