Amazing advances in technology. I wouuld expect there will be zones in the cabin for phoners and non-phoners (and possibly a premium on the seat prices as well).

But, my question is this: will the pilots still use HF and VHF simplex frequencies? Let's face it, the two people who most need to have clear and effective external communication during the flight are still using bean cans and string. But aviation is very cost driven....
