Airplanes have lots of links - some satellite yes, but there are also cellular link types such as this: http://aircell.com/ Thanks - Fred fred.l.temp...@boeing.com > Alex > > > > >>> All these devices need the cellular operator to deliver > >>> shorter-than-64 prefixes to a SIM connection. > >> > >> For lack of a better description, the cellular side of businesses > >> suffer from "bell head:" thinking, where the UE is an application > >> endpoint.
