Especially annoying since e-ink devices have a reach of about a millimeter, minus the WiFi. My 650 couldn't have any effect from my seat. I just hold it on my lap and start reading again when the flight attendants are seated for takeoff. There's a tone that indicates that the cabin is secure and I choose a seat that they can't see when seated. It tells you how often I fly, that I know the tones and sequence for take off.
