During takeoff and landing, please stop ALL electronics, that includes.....

That is what I understand. and afterawhile they will make announccement now you can use your electronics or notebook computer. That is the time I took out my BT toys and play. No. My GPS is a toy. I would not attempt to violate ANY rule intentionally for playing with my toy. I am an average joe, so does most travellers and the air steward/ess team. I only remember electronics, notebook computer and cellphone. I doubt the instructions breaks down to which types of electronics. Finally, there is only one icon on your overhead to signal that you are allow to use electronics.

I tried a couple of times, just to see where things stand. My cell, treo w alltel, does NOT work while we are in the air. My GPS failed to pick up signal when we are allowed to do so.

@Geneven: Yes, I saw those pics. I still believe it has something to do with your altitude, once you got to certain altitude, you will NOT pick up anything. Will somebody has wings and has brain step up please?
