Not a chance. CAL invented "over promise, under deliver." First it was August, then September, now end of year.
I will report here when I, a lowly line pilot, have one in my hands. If it's before the first of the year, I will be digitally surprised.

Great!! Another 'training item' in which the Company can toss our way to just "CBT".....Oh yeah, BTW.....have it done by tomorrow, and we'll 'think' about paying you!!
Personally, residing in the camp of "believe them, when I see them".

Wow............I'm from Roswell and least we know the spacecraft and aliens EXISTED...........unlike these iPads.
However, I'm as skeptical as any since we're still waiting for the iridium phones that they supposedly were installing over FIVE years ago............yet I've still not seen the first one. Reminds me a lot of the military............hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait.

From Roswell??? I'm Sorry
Kinda like the 'now' meaningless/fancey-phrases that Jeff STILL plagiarizes from 2 mgt generations ago....."Dignity & Respect"....or how about "Working Together", that's gotta be my favorite!! Lots of ambitious talk, with little to NO result thus far on many levels.....more so than just Sat. Phones/iPads.
As we have seen thus far, a lot of 'smoke-n-mirrors'. There's largely no action on Mgt's part in setting an example by leading this new entity in being a World Class Airline.
Sorry, drift corrected....iPads for all!!

......At "Wright-Patt" AFB stored right next to the Roswell/UFO remains.

I would not doubt the having them part, it is the use for them that we need to question.
They are probably sitting in storage next to the 1300 tasers UAL bought. After all the fanfare and pilot training with that, the only ones that ended up getting tased with the high voltage devices were pilot "volunteers". I am sure the company would love to figure out a way to use these Ipads in a repeat fashion.
They will be looking very hard for ways to use the Ipad as a weapon against the pilots, rather than a tool for the pilots...
