Yes, I did read your post. My point was that although you may (very rightly) be confident that your device will not endanger an aircraft, can you be confident that the same applies to every device a passenger may decide to bring on the aircraft? If the answer is "no", what practical alternative is there other than to prohibit the use of ALL devices? That's a serious question - how can the cabin crew possibly know what is or is not safe?
