I tablet si stanno affermando sempre più non solo come strumenti di intrattenimento casalingo, ma anche per intrattenere i passeggeri dei voli. I Galaxy Tab di Samsung e l’iPad di Apple sono stati finora gli unici protagonisti dei voli delle grandi compagnie, ma a quanto pare anche Motorola ha il suo momento. Alitalia ha infatti annunciato che adotterà lo Xoom 2 per l’intrattenimento a bordo dei passeggeri dei suoi voli. Gli unici a poter beneficiare dei tablet saranno i passeggeri delle classi Business e Magnifica da e verso il Medio Oriente e la Russia. Inoltre, Alitalia fornirà dei tablet Motorola anche le lounge room per i clienti più abbienti così che possano tenersi costantemente informati prima dell’imbarco.

Non ci sono informazioni sui voli da e per altre destinazioni, come ad esempio l’Europa o l’America, ma vi lasciamo consolare con questo video caricato dalla compagnia di bandiera su YouTube per fare pubblicità all’iniziativa. Complimenti sia a Motorola che ad Alitalia per la collaborazione, speriamo che anche chi non può permettersi un volo in classe Business possa presto usufruire di servizi come questo.

Bah, mi sembra che postazioni a touch screen con questi identici contenuti ci siano da anni su tutte le linee aere che prevedono più di 3 ore di volo.
L’idea poi di dare i tablet ai manager che sono impazienti di imbarcarsi è veramente da oscar.
Una non-notizia degna di Alitalia, tra l’altro mi sembra che sia più orientata ai problemi delle hostess o degli assistenti di volo piuttosto che ai viaggiatori.
Mettessero a disposizione una sana linea wi-fi piuttosto. Ognuno di noi ha tutti i tablet che vuole, non c’è bisogno di mamma Motorola.
