Emirates adding wireless email service

Emirates is now adding a wireless LAN email service on some aircraft. Tenzing is working with Europe’s Airbus S.A.S. and a division of Matsushita Electric Industrial to equip Emirates’ new Airbus A340-500 jets with Wi-Fi LANs. Tenzing’s software supports a wide variety of email clients including any POP3 client, and can support some types of corporate virtual private networks. The company probably will offer support for IBM Lotus Notes mail in the next few months.
