Some interesting quotes in this article:

"Tourists will fly even higher than SpaceShipOne's record-breaking altitude 
of 69 miles and experience about seven minutes of weightlessness."


If this is the case, SS2 will be an interim step between this week's hop 
into space, and an intercontinental transport that could serve as a high 
speed system from the US to Japan, which IMHO is the key to the whole endeavor.
