ITPK .03 x .04. Connection to Lufthansa. Some very, very interesting new information available on line.

Recently I posted this:
From Lufthansa Systems
"The latest addition to Lufthansa Systems' award-winning BoardConnect platform: the very first solution to connect a portable IFE product with a connectivity solution. The system uses IRIDIUM Next, which is available worldwide thanks to several small satellites, and its bandwidth is sufficient for all messaging and payment services."

IPTK President in a recent podcast:
"Recently you did an article on Lufthansa Systems new hardware platform for Iridium Next - that's fflya."

"Inflight connectivity system that utilizes Bluetooth technology and Iridium"
https://asiptech.com/

"Low Cost LEO-Satellite Ancillary Revenue and Free Messaging System"
https://fflya.com/


This is what I found today:

"Lufthansa Systems continues to see nice demand for BoardConnect Portable, with Gaense telling RGN that the company has secured a few new undisclosed airline customers for the solution, which streams cached entertainment content to passengers’ own devices. Among the factors driving continued interest is that Lufthansa Systems offers an attractive upgrade path to live inflight connectivity."

From a previous story at runwaygirlnetwork.com
"Gaense says Lufthansa Systems wants to maintain this momentum by moving into light connectivity with BoardConnect Portable. “We have a little box over there, which is an Iridium NEXT modem that we want to pair with Portable. It’s also battery powered, so no certification required. All of a sudden, at really low cost, you can at least offer wifi streaming and messaging services.”
“Not more,” than that in connectivity terms, Gaense says, “because the Iridium NEXT bandwidth will never be enough to offer browsing and streaming.” But as a way for an airline to dip its proverbial toe into some of the benefits of connectivity, and particularly in regions where messaging services are the dominant form of social media, the case is compelling."

See the connection here?
The IPTK ceo says

And
"with Gaense telling RGN that the company has secured a few new undisclosed airline customers for the solution"

And
"its bandwidth is sufficient for all messaging and payment services"

The IPTK ceo says:
"all our communications and all modern communication platforms are short burst data, including Email, SMS, IM, Google, Twitter, Banking, News, Booking, Billing, Weather and the back end of all Social Networks."

And
"the product is now in production and has received favourable responses from potential airline customers and strategic partners"
