Re: WLAN Laptops

Some middle managers actually use their laptops to work, or to entertain themselves and not simply to impress the person sitting beside them. I suspect the blackberries are a much greater risk when people forget to turn off the transmit option and no one questions them as they madly click away while airborne.

Wireless signals are usually pretty limited in range, and unless someone has a router up in Biz Class, can't see what the issue is. Free wireless in the frequent flyer lounge usually fades once you leave the area. And on Dells, anyways, the signal can be disabled with a "Right-Click > Disable".
