Very cool, if true

I totally agree with your sentiments on allowing ebook readers et al on flights. I love my Kindle app when I'm travelling - just being able to plug in headphones and read while listening to music makes a flight, well, fly by - if you know what I mean :)

And somehow, those few minutes between taxi'ing and completing takeoff - where everyone has to switch off their electronic devices off - seem the longest. Only a physical book can fill that gap. For that, I tend to cart around a slim volume or two I my laptop sleeve - otherwise I end up descending into the insanity of the flight magazine. The horror! The horror!
