Up, Up, And Away With Meru Networks And Aircell

September 15, 2010 03:00 PM
Putting network connectivity in the hands of airline passengers is not a new idea. Back in 2001, I spent considerable time talking with Boeing's Connexion team about their new on-board client access initiative. With a BS in Aeronautics and a career in IT, I couldn't get enough of the story about networks that streak across the sky. Unfortunately, Boeing ultimately couldn't make a profitable go of it, using satellite modems and then-current wireless technology. Connexion quietly closed up shop in 2006 for lack of demand versus high cost of equipment and aircraft retrofit. But times and technology change fast, and there are new players in the airborne WiFi game. A few weeks ago, Meru Networks announced their partnership with Aircell, and this generation of in-flight client access has a much better chance of making good.

Cisco VP Barry O'Sullivan told Forbes how the Cius could replace mobile and desktop phones--and even desktop computers--in the business setting. Bloggers blogged, and Cius's mystique continued to build. But, that was then, when the product was projected for a Q4 2010 release.
