Say goodbye to the rubbish in-seat entertainment devices you've been suffering - American Airlines has chosen the Galaxy Tab 10.1 to revolutionise its in-flight offering.
In a move that sets the standard for competing airlines, Samsung's flagship device will be the Premium Class offering going forward. The initial release features more than seventy movies and a number of TV series, a huge range of individual television programmes, plus musical channels to meet every taste. Or so their marketing spokes-captain claims. He adds: "Today's news is the latest in a series of investments we've made in our focus on product and service enhancements for our premium customers, and we know they will be delighted with the contemporary entertainment experience of the tablet."
Which may even be true.
The Tab is likely to feature an American Airlines-specific interface and will get additional content such as games, access to social networking and e-reader publications, courtesy of AA.
That is, if Apple doesn't get a tame judge to award an injunction against them in the meantime.

This is a very good move from American Airlines. Entertainment is one of the best things that a passenger needs when traveling. This will surely change the way people perceive flights.
