Fink Angel The Merry Men	Posted - 2008.03.26 12:41:00 - [1] http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7314362.stm Will there soon be no place on Earth that I can get away from the incessant yacking of people using up their all inclusive minutes? Tens of chattering mindless zombies chanting a mantra of "I'm on the plane." Gah!
Polonium 210 Imperial Academy	Posted - 2008.03.26 12:47:00 - [2] Well, at least people don't make much noise when speaking by their phones. Children on planes are usually much worse irritants though. Tbh, aviacompanies should lauch slightly more expensive child-free flights, thei'll make a fortune on it.
Barren QelThyr State War Academy	Posted - 2008.03.26 14:05:00 - [3] Leading to some stupid claim by parents/child right groups/ect. that its discrimination or somewhat. Oh the world we live in

When I flew to Cyprus, I had 4 loud mouth valley girls sat directly behind me. Mobiles will not be as annoying as the sparkly cowboy hat wearing *****s.

Mobiles will not be as annoying as the sparkly cowboy hat wearing ****s. It's not an "either/or" choice here. You take those annoying girls and then multiply* how annoying they will be if they are freely allowed to use mobile phones as well!
Zephyr Rengate Prophets Of a Damned Universe	Posted - 2008.03.26 14:53:00 - [7] DURKA DURKA. Mobile phone will be detonator, or so ive heard it can be used as one.
Rodj Blake PIE Inc. Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris	Posted - 2008.03.26 15:02:00 - [8] "HELLO? NO! I'M ON THE PLANE" Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori.

They just don't shut up, so whether its to someone on the phone or each other, it still wont matter. They also seem to travel in packs to.
Cmdr Sy Appetite 4 Destruction INTERDICTION	Posted - 2008.03.26 18:02:00 - [10] Wow. Just think, pretty soon people will be able to use their phones on planes. Maybe they will have a segregated Quiet Zone like on trains, where you are not allowed to use them? EVE CCG Trinity Booster
Auraurious Quam Singulari Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.03.26 18:15:00 - [11] bahh and then you will get the little group playing crappy music and waving it about so even if it were good it would still sound balls, yaaaaaay! Perfection.

Yeah, all the planes I've flown on have seperate carriages, and you can just walk around between them freely.
Daelorn Dark Cartel Synchr0nicity	Posted - 2008.03.26 19:42:00 - [13] Originally by: Rodj Blake "HELLO? NO! I'M ON THE PLANE" This made me laugh for some reason. But... Does this include the pilot...?

Yeah, all the planes I've flown on have seperate carriages, and you can just walk around between them freely. They don't have "separate" carriages but there defiantly sub sectioned. I always walk around on the long hall flights.
Brea Lafail Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2008.03.27 02:46:00 - [15] Didnt they used to have built-in phones? This is no different near as I can see.
MalVortex Jericho Fraction The Star Fraction	Posted - 2008.03.27 04:03:00 - [16] Politicians finally realized that the repeater towers broadcasts hit the plane regardless of the cellphones being turned on or off huh? Or that 5v transmitters operating on a completely different band can't interfere with the massive, high powered radios used in airplanes?
Chainsaw Plankton IDLE GUNS	Posted - 2008.03.27 04:12:00 - [17] Originally by: Brea Lafail Didnt they used to have built-in phones? This is no different near as I can see. yea but don't they cost like $1 a min or something, really didn't have a need to call anyone from an airplane (or a credit card to do it with)
Brea Lafail Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2008.03.27 04:18:00 - [18] My understanding from that article was that the planes would have a cell receiver built in which then transmits the calls onto the regular network, so extra service charges would still be there. "The plan is to install small mobile phone base stations, called pico cells, in aircraft that will be switched on after take-off. The base station generates a bubble of coverage in and around the aircraft."
