that was my point ... bogus regulations of the FAA, supported by bogus 'science' of the Airline Industry, results in this sort of thing, that is that RFI from cell phones and/or blackberries will cause problems with flight ops. In fact all recent tests done by FAA engineers failed to turn up any evidence of RFI induced problems, In sum ... There is NO evidence whatsoever that cell phones interfere with Airliner operation, but the Airlines maintain they 'might', but then show the airlines how to make money from the passengers for use of wireless and whoa ... concerns of RFI evaporate.
