This is a neat service for sure and will be useful to many. I would however like to address the following quote from the TechCrunch article:<p>"In fact, I now assume that all flights will have Wifi, so when they don’t (eh, hem United Flight 0059) it’s like someone cut off your oxygen. And it’s such a rude awakening when you get off the plane and realize that there’s a thousand emergencies that went down while you were watching the inflight Adam Sandler movie and you have to scramble for the rest of the day fighting fires."<p>If you are working with that kind of pressure for a long time, thats really counter productive. It can be kind of addictive being that irreplacable but its bad business.

Note that one of Kayak's options is to filter by wifi availability.

Hipmunk should integrate with this (or buy them or write their own) as soon as possible

In the UK the trains had free wiki which was fab - made going to London productive. Found out last night that they are now charging for it - cue grinding of teeth and endless rage.
