I just flew Continental yesterday from California to Tennessee. On one flight they made the standard announcement that we could use "approved portable...
I just took Continental Ny to San Francisco and back. Going, I was using my treo to read an ebook. They saw me and asked me to turn it off during take off. On...
This has been said before, but it bears repeating. There is no evidence that cell phones or other consumer electronics cause interference with aircraft...
This brings up a good discussion. I have the Jabra BT500 and had a BT250v and the thing I like about both is that the eargel sits inside my ear making it much...
Sony Ericsson HBH 660 or 662 are loud and very high quality, although discontinued. I've tried most of the BT headsets and this one is by far the best for me....
Anybody know what this is? It kept popping up in file managers when looking at the SD card. After a format, it came back. There's a directory plus a ton of...
Hello, Jason. ... I cannot use earbud style sets. Try the Logitech Mobile Freedom, it's louder than other BT headsets I've tried. ... Logitech Mobile Freedom....
Actually there IS evidence that cellphones can disrupt the airplane GPS navigation systems. This was reported in my last month's issue of IEEE magazine...
Hello, Christopher Erickson. ... Also, that paragon of scientific investigation known as "Mythbusters" on the Discovery Channel, showed that cellphone use in...

Over the last couple weeks, my treo resets several times a day. Usually, it occurs after some heavy surfing. Light surf won't do it. But after reading...

I've not called from my Treo but did have it on during take off and landing several times - from RJ50s to 767s, no problems. Of course, the signal is much...
