I fly every week from Florida to Maryland and I will generally leave it on. I've had flight attendants look over my shoulder and once or twice they will kindly ask me to turn it off. Most of the time they are interested and I try to explain how it uses very little power when it's not turning pages.

Most airlines now let you leave on noise-canceling headphones, which to me use just as much or more power than the Reader.

The rules about turning off devices that might have some sort of EMF interference are good and if I felt that the Reader would contribute to that problem I would certainly make sure and turn it off completely.

Plus, half the time I'm asleep before the plane takes off!
