I'm currently exploring the galaxy and I'm around 10,000 LY away from civilization - so I can't dock at a station to read the Galnet news.
Now, obviously I can read it outside of the game, but for the purpose of immersion I would like to receive transmissions periodically while exploring. Receiving incoming transmission packets would enhance the gaming experience for me, and keep me informed of what's happening in the populated section of the galaxy.
This feature could also be extended to allow players to send messages to each other, or to their group - so if I'm offline, I get the message when I next start playing ED.
