WiFi holds no appeal to me as I have unlimited internet on my phone and a dongle for my laptop and Macbook (not that I'd be in a hurry to get either out on a crowded bus).
Power sockets and Wi-Fi have been proven up and down the country to stimulate market growth.
Whilst Wi-Fi has no appeal to me (I also have an unlimited data package), it certainly appeals to a lot of people who have a limited amount of data each month. Some of my friends refuse to get any other service besides "Drifter" service 60 to school, on the basis that, if they opt for another service, they won't be able to access the Internet whilst travelling to school.
As a heavy mobile phone user, power sockets certainly do appeal to me though. In instances where I do not travel with my portable external power bank battery charger, I usually find myself running out of battery by the end of the day. For me, the thought of a bus journey without music is unbearable in most cases...
