Ellliot, it is interesting that you are so sure...
Answer me this: You are on the peak of Mt. Ranier and you call your
sweetie to announce that you have sucessfully climbed the mountain and
you are not in the least surprised that it works (mountain climbers use
cell phones all the time)... Yet when I call from my plane, tens of
thousands of feet lower in altitude, you are sure it won't work and you
are sure it is not legal... hmmm?

Technical issues aside, unless something has changed very recently,
inflight use of a mobile phone is illegal according to FCC regulations.

In the PCS band, I never seem to have much of a signal while airborne.
