@Mark You can also get a terminal through ctrl + alt +t. You can alt-tab between the browser and the terminal after that. I believe the sudo password for the torrent version is chromeos, I don't know for gdgt's. There's a version here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1331975 , and the password for that is chromium05. What you can do is pretty restricted though - the root filesystem is read-only. Seeing as /var/lib/dpkg/lock is set (and isn't writable) you can't use dpkg to install anything.

There's a thread here in ubuntuforums with screenshots and download links. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1331975

From looking at the video their current technology seems to offer 45Mbps to the whole plane, so 50 passengers all trying to stream HD and we're back down to "regular" 900kbps downloads.

Now that I've actually looked at the article and other pictures, they seem pretty adamant that a full version of firefox is running on it. From the icon set used, it looks like they've used version 2 for some strange reason.

Maybe it's a tweaked version of fennec, which I think has been / is being ported to android

Does anyone have a video of this?

Has anyone got a video of this?

It seems odd that they'd offer 7.04; feisty has been officially unsupported by canonical for the last 6 months. My guess is that it's a typo and they mean 8.04: the current LTS release.

Isn't the whole point that they won't need to?
Although I hardly expect the feature-creep to stop; today's netbooks are quite different beasts compared to the 701s.

It's up again; thanks Engadget!
