Aircell Partners Aricent

Aricent has announced its alliance with Aircell on the development of key

software and processing components for the company's inflight broadband systems.

The company's new broadband system will provide inflight Internet access to

commercial airline passengers in 2008. Aricent developed software components and

functionality for Aircell's on-board central control processor. This system

provides data communication between in-flight Wi-Fi users and the cellular

air-to-ground communications module used to deliver Aircell's in-flight service,

Gogo.
