Ryanair's lead? Ha! Come on, the technology has been available for a while now, and I don't see any other airlines really making a go of it. The air phones were a different proposition - more complex to use because they required a credit card, expensive, and difficult for business users to expense. Ryanair are not leading with mobile phone use to be innovative, they're leading because they think they see an opportunity to make money. Don't believe anyone will use it? Well in that case why are Ryanair doing it - it isn't for passenger convenience, I assure you. Try the trains - people shouting on mobiles all the time. At least inter-city trains provide a quiet coach. I suspect Ryanair are not going to provide a quiet cabin segrated from the mobile enabled area!
