I thought I lost my Gogo!

So I know I said I wasn’t going to go online during this flight.  It turns out I’m not good at Kindle reading for 4 hours and even though I fell asleep before we even took off that liter of Dr. Pepper kicked in somewhere over Arkansas.

Ultimately the temptation to use the free GoGo Wireless code I received for upgrading to Priority Seating™ was too great… the 572 digit coupon code wqs buried in my email!  I had gotten that coupon on 5/24 and I only had my phone set to sync my inbox back 4 days so now I couldn’t get to it while offline.

FOOK ME, RIGHT? SRSLY.

I took out my android phone (HTC G2) to play Angry Birds but then I changed my mind.  Even though it was in airplane mode I turned on the WiFi and connected to the GoGo Inflight HotSpot.  What the hell, right? I got nothing else to do.

BAM.

I have new email! I was shocked.  Apparently you can send and receive emails on your Android Device even if you haven’t paid for access.

So I was able to get to the aforementioned 8673 digit coupon code and get online after all.  

Only now I just want to take a nap.
