VoIP Joins the Mile High Club

Andy Abramson has used Phweet to make a call to Joanna Stern (Laptop Magazine) while she was en route New York, utilising the Aircell kit that American Airlines have installed.

What's so interesting about this? Aircell claim to block VoIP. They do block Skype and SIP, but certain technologies, including Flash in this case, will tunnel out.

I don’t mean a five second hi, hello. I mean, a real conversation, as she held her Lenovo UMPC up to her face. I even heard the announcement from the flight attendants as she was about to land
