Back in the day, I was told that I had to turn off my walkman (tape player). Seriously, I think that a Kindle with wi-fi/3g turned off puts out as much interference as a digital watch. But things aren't going to change any time soon.

I just have to remind myself that flying is not a right, so I have to play by their rules... as inane as those rules might be.
