Gain Insight into In Flight TextMessaging.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c79781) has announced the addition of "In Flight Text Messaging" to their offering.

Cell phones in flight can be used for a lot more than voice, and one of the fastest growing applications for

the mobile devices is in flight text messaging. And as an increasing number of passengers send SMS messages from airline seats, they are providing operational evidence that phones can be used in flight without interfering with communications and navigation equipment. Yet as this market is beginning to show signs of strength, many are asking:

-Why is SMS running ahead of e-mail and instant messaging on commercial jets?

-How will the service impact competitive conditions among airlines?

-How far does the international market have to grow before U.S. regulators feel pressure from domestic technology suppliers, passengers, and airlines?

In addition to forecasts for texting by aircraft type, this report looks at how improving economics and new satellites are allowing the in flight connectivity market to shift from generating headlines to supplying revenue for service providers and airlines alike.
