If that doesn’t tell you that Boeing blew it by being premature and pulling out of the flying WiFi space by a year ago, nothing proves it better.

A survey by BarclayCard shows that by fifty percent of the business travel market want Web connectivity on the go and in the air, at least with the audience under 50. But even by 50 year olds, 40 percent of them, want it too.

Put me in the first group, for I’ve already had the experience on Lufthansa when they offered Connexxion

back in 2006 and LOVED IT. Heck I even made a few VoIP and Skype Calls using Gizmo Project and Counterpath’s Eyebeam.

Most of all the sense of knowing all my mail was caught up on was a big relief when I got off the plane versus the need to spend an hour cleaning up my inbox as I normally do each wee hours.

In my view, we’re going to see more users the next moment around staying connected in the air…
