I don't understand this whole debate about cell phone use inflight. I have never found a cell phone to actually WORK to make phone calls while at 35,000 feet. I see passengers playing games and such or listening to music on their phone, but I've never seen anyone talking on them - that's because they don't WORK up there! If anyone knows of a phone that actually can connect a call while inflight, I'd like to know about it. And..about the interfearance with the aircraft systems...I don't know who true that it. Everyday, passengers leave their cells phone on in their bags by mistake and there has yet to be an airplane accident directly related to cell phone usage.
