The good, the bad and the ugly

The good news:

After shuttering its Connexion unit at the end of 2006, Boeing has confirmed it will offer Panasonic's Ku-band-supported Global Communications Suite (GCS) on its 777s; Turkish Airlines will be the first to take delivery on 23 September.

The bad news:

Boeing has not announced a plan for connecting its long-delayed 787 twinjet (it may be focused on other things right now...like a little party with ANA).

The ugly:

Turkish Airlines has sent along some snaps of what appears to be its portal for the Panasonic in-flight Internet/IPTV service, which the airline has branded 'Planet Entertainment'. Somebody needs to call IDEO stat!
