Has anybody heard when/if we will be allowed to use a software feature already developed but "turned off" for our usage?
I will admit that I have not paid to much attention to the future plans of our EFB's. However, I was one of the original testers of the Endeavor EFB's and back then the plan was to enable the wifi on the 2nd generation of EFB's. I think we have one more year until the company starts to replace our current EFB's.
