Isn’t it great to be able to take your music library with you when you fly somewhere? Let’s face it, flying is one of the few occasions left when you are expected to do no more than just sit there (ok, and buy lots of expensive coffee, food etc.). So you don’t have to feel guilty about sitting back and enjoying some tunes.
The brainboxes in the tech industry are making it even easier to do this by merging our iPods with our mobile phones – one less gadget to carry, one less charger, so much smarter.
Except that I was shocked at the announcement on a recent flight to the effect that, although iPods etc could be used once airborne, mobile phones must remain switched off even if they have a flight safety mode and you just want to use them to listen to a bit of Bach.
Oh dear. So much for convergence.
