Swipe out! Thales introduces credit card insert for next gen IFE

On the chance that you missed this video from AIX, here is my interview with Thales VP media services Stuart Dunleavy on why the firm's next generation in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) system is so special.

Personally, I like that Thales will forgo the usual credit card swipe, and instead will offer a new credit card insert, which "takes into account chip and pin technology...which we see as a very important emerging technology", says Dunleavy. Oh yeah, and that 12.1in screen with HD and touchscreen handheld is sweet too.
