There has been talk recently of airlines in parts of the world (JetBlue in America) allowing in-flight cell phone usage. cnet.com
For me I like the idea of disappearing over the clouds for a few hours. It's probably one of the few places I can just kick back and reflect knowing that I can't make any moves. That would be out of the window if they let calls through on the flight. I can only imagine noise that would be coming from the people sitting around yapping away. Arrrgggg!!!
What JetBlue is suggesting is allowing text messaging but not voice calls. Thats better for the peace and quiet but terrible for the disappearing act.
What do you think?But The Economist reports that 80% of airline travelers said that they would approve of the use of cell phones in transit. via infight.com

we're already OVER-CONNECTED -- alot of what's said is unnecessary, to say nothing of cell phone's link with cancer -- a lil in air meditation is vital, let's protect silence
