Default Commuters vs Occasional users.

I think that some sort of WiFi is probably much more strongly required on Inter City rather than commuter services as they probably have a higher proportion occasional travellers.

As a regular commuter I use a three 3G connection which works adequately and is very cheap. But if I were taking the train once a week or less, I couldn't justify the cost of the 3G connection but would take advantage of on-board WiFi if it were available.

Differing requirements for different types of passenger and I would hazard a guess that the occasional traveller is less likely to hang out here and stick their oar in the subject.

I do agree that getting something vaguely resembling punctuality and reliability is a much higher priority.
