When are US trains gonna get WiFi?

Tech guru David Isenberg's got a smart rant about US trains' lack of Wifi (heck, we're still looking for the electrical plugs on CalTran). He points to a Gotham Gazette piece calling for the NY Transit Authority to add Wifi to local trains (yeah, right) and says that Swedish workers are so productive on the train they want those commuting hours marked on the clock. Doubtful that's soon to be the case here, but come on, if Philly can outfit their city with free WiFi, can't the MTA just give us a few measly trains?
