"Please switch ON your mobile phone on this flight"

Two European airlines will allow passengers late next year to use their own cell phones on commercial flights within western Europe.
TAP Air Portugal and British carrier bmi both have agreed to introduce OnAir's voice and text service for cell phones in separate three-month trial runs, OnAir's Chief Executive George Cooper said. The planes--which will be the first to allow passengers to make and receive calls with their own cell phones while onboard--will give OnAir the chance to assess its service before its general release, slated for 2007, he said. "With both airlines, initially there will be a couple of airplanes--two or three airplanes--equipped with this system," Cooper told the AP from Germany. "During that three months, we'll all be evaluating how it's going, what the usage is, how we handle the crew issues, and so on."

Just imagine, how noisy will be in the future ???? haha....
