And many airlines specifically state to turn of "Kindles (sic)." So using your ebook could get you a Federal offense for failure to complay with flight crew instructions.
Kindles, I can understand. They have wireless capability. But a simple e-ink ereader without any features!?!?! (such as my Mini).
