Yeah sorry about that it does come across a bit too harsh and certainly more than I really meant it to. Do accept my apologies, hope I did not offend to much? Perhaps a few emoticons in there would have been more appropriate.

Glad to help out with the info. A lot of people sadly have a big misunderstanding of telecommunications (caused by people only being given half the story as you say happened to you), which can cause unfounded scare stories. That was what I was trying to get across in my message. English composition never was my best subject

After all that has been said on this subject I heard a Nokia SMS received tone (somebody probably switched it on early) from the back of the aircraft on finals to Schiphol on Friday afternoon. Was not impressed Cabin crew said nothing. I mentioned it on leaving and she said she had not heard it. Fair enough. Doesn’t excuse the prat who did it though.
